Ingredients
  

For the cake
  • 3 large large eggs
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup almond flour or finely ground almonds
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder optional
  • 1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds optional, for topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper, giving it a light grease.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup (or honey), Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. In another bowl, stir together the almond flour, shredded coconut, salt, and baking powder if using.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks gently.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle toasted sliced almonds on top if desired.
Baking
  1. Bake for about 35–40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  2. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve generously with light dusting of powdered sugar or chocolate syrup. Store wrapped in plastic wrap or an airtight container, can last a couple of days at room temperature or longer in the fridge.
