Incredibly Delicious Sugar Free Angel Food Cake
Oh January, aka “the diet month” – you’ve been long, cold, and awful. I can’t even remember the last time I had a nice piece of cake just for me. Granted, I kinda overdid it in December. (It was worth it 🙂 )
Now everything has changed with this spongy, soft, and delicious sugar free angel food cake. Basically, I can have my cake and eat it too, since there are not many calories in one bite.
If you’re watching your sugar intake, or are on a low-fat diet, this angel food cake is perfect for you. Have it for dessert, or with coffee int he morning.
On top of the cake, I added some sugar-free whipped topping and fresh berries. You can omit that or serve with warm fruit compote, fresh stone-fruit, sugar-free syrup, etc. My husband suggested that I cut in the middle to create a 2 layer cake. It’s a great idea to try next week.
For those of you that have never made an Angel Food Cake, don’t be intimidated. It’s not difficult to make. The hardest part is removing it from the mold after the cake has cooled. I recommend getting a 2 piece Angel food pan to make your life easier. Click HERE to check them out at Amazon.
For this sugar free dessert, I used pure vanilla extract. You can substitute with almond, hazelnut, lemon, lavender or any other extract you may like. Also, you can simply omit the extract and add fresh citrus juice with zest. A combination of orange and lime sounds nice.
To sweeten the cake you can buy stevia, Splenda, etc. I added Swerve. I love the fact that it sweetens without the chemical aftertaste.
Just keep in mind that some sweeteners are more concentrated than others and you may need a little less. Usually, there are specific instructions on the box.
