Instructions:-
For the Carrot Cake Roll:-
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
- Fold in the grated carrots and chopped nuts if using.
- Pour the batter onto the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake is set and lightly browned on top.
- While the cake is baking, lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust it lightly with powdered erythritol or coconut flour.
- Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and immediately flip it onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
- Starting at the short end, roll the cake up in the towel (jelly roll style) and let it cool completely.
For the Cream Cheese Filling:-
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
Assembly:-
- Carefully unroll the cooled carrot cake from the towel.
- Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cake.
- Roll the cake back up, this time without the towel.
- Wrap the Keto Carrot Cake Roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour to set.
- Before serving, you can dust the roll with a bit more powdered erythritol for decoration, if desired.
