Recipe

Preparation Time: 14 mins Cook Time: 40 mins Ready Time: 1 hr 34 mins


• preheat the oven to 350 degrees f. grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan or an 8-inch square cake pan.
• sift together the coconut flour and baking powder, mixing to combine; set aside.
• in a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter with the cocoa, stirring until well blended.
• whisk the sugar, salt, vanilla, and eggs into the butter-cocoa mixture. add the coconut flour and baking powder, whisking until smooth.
• pour the batter into the prepared pan. let it rest for 10 minutes.
• bake the loaf or cake until set, and a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean. this will take 35 to 45 minutes for the loaf pan, or 30 to 35 minutes for the square pan.
• cool the cake in the pan for 30 minutes before turning it out a rack to cool completely. the cake is easiest to slice when it's completely cool.
