Ingredients
Cake:
• 2 cups blanched almond flour
• ¼ cup coconut flour
• 1½ tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp sea salt
• Zest of 1 large orange (about 1½ tbsp)
• 3 large eggs
• ¾ cup brown sugar–style monk fruit blend (e.g., Lakanto Golden—adds caramel depth)
• ⅓ cup unsweetened applesauce
• ¼ cup melted coconut oil or butter
• 2 tbsp fresh orange juice
• 1½ tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1¼ cups fresh or frozen cranberries (halved if large, tossed in 1 tsp coconut flour to prevent sinking)
Orange Glaze:
• ¾ cup powdered monk fruit blend
• 1½–2 tbsp fresh orange juice (start with 1½, add drop by drop)
• Optional: ¼ tsp orange extract for extra brightness
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease & flour a 10-cup Bundt pan (coconut flour works great).
- Whisk almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in orange zest.
- In a bowl, beat eggs and brown sugar substitute 2–3 min until pale and slightly thickened.
- Mix in applesauce, oil, orange juice, and vanilla. Fold in dry ingredients until just combined. Gently fold in cranberries.
- Pour batter into pan. Tap gently to release air bubbles.
- Bake 40–48 min until golden and a toothpick comes out clean (edges pull slightly from pan).
- Cool in pan 15 min, then invert onto a wire rack. Cool completely.
- Glaze: Whisk powdered sweetener and 1½ tbsp orange juice. Add more juice drop by drop until thick but pourable. Drizzle over cooled cake. Let set 30 min.
