The Dessert Angel Cookbook has some amazing healthy Low Carb Desserts. Some of her desserts are higher in carbs and some are low carb, but they are very healthy for you compared to what the traditional recipes offer.
In my video I have demonstrated the Low Carb Flourless Carrot Cake; I added an extra tablespoon of erythritol to the recipe to make it a little sweeter.
2 cups almond flour
• 3 pinches stevia (9 drops)
• 1 tsp guar gum

• 1/8 tsp sea salt

with a whisk then add in guar gum and vanilla and whisk together well

carrots into the egg mixture and mix well with a spoon
