Ingredients: Chocolate Lava Cake 1 cups almond meal/flour ½ cups coconut flour ¼ cups cocoa powder 4 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice or more to your taste 2 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp salt ½ cups sugar-free dark chocolate chips 3 eggs 1 egg white ¾ cups unsweetened almond milk 1 tsp vanilla 4 tbsp unsalted butter melted Chocolate Sauce ½ cups warm water 2 tbsp cocoa powder 1 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice or more to your taste Instructions 1. Grease the liner on your slow cooker. 2. In a large bowl mix together all the wet ingredients for your cake. Then sift the dry ingredients (don't use the chocolate chips yet) into the wet ingredients with a fine mesh sieve or sifter. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together. 3. Pour the batter into the slow cooker and spread it out. Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top of the batter. Mix together the chocolate sauce in separate cup then pour it over the batter. Let the chocolate sauce sit on top of the batter, do not mix it in. 4. Cover the slow cooker. Cook the cake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours on the low setting. The cooking time vary depending on the size of the slow cooker so keep an eye on it. It is done with the top is shiny and looks fudgy. Your cake should not look dry.

Hi thanks these recipes are okay, but I was looking for something healthier than this. Here is what I mean. These recipes use a cake mix and vegetable oil. This is not healthy because it has wheat flour and trans fats. Is there a recipe that uses a nut flour and is made from scratch? Thanks.
