Your finished Tres Leches Cake will be dressed with sliced strawberries and a sprinkling of cinnamon. No joke, this three milk cake will impress at any gathering.
If you're counting carbs, rest in the bliss that one slice of this cake is only 4 net carbs. Using low-carb ingredients to start, you only get added sugars from the strawberries, and the fiber-filled flours and fruit help to offset other natural sugars in the recipe.
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup Lakanto Monkfruit Baking Sweetener
1 tsp salt
6 eggs, separated
1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled (can sub another oil)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream
½ cup unsweetened coconut cream
½ cup half and half
1 tsp Liquid Monkfruit Extract, Vanilla
1 ½ cups heavy cream, chilled
3 heaping Tablespoons Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Line the bottom of a 6-8” inch cake pan with parchment paper, then coat with your favorite baking spray.
Whisk the coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 cup Lakanto Monkfruit Baking Sweetener together in a bowl. Set aside.
Place the egg whites into a stand mixer with the remaining Lakanto Monkfruit Baking Sweetener and blend until stiff peaks form.
In another bowl whisk the egg yolks, butter and vanilla extract. Fold into the coconut flour mixture.
Gently fold in the stiffened egg whites in small batches into the coconut flour batter. Careful not to over mix!
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 22-25 minutes. Allow to cool for about 20 minutes. You can remove the cake from the pan to a serving plate, or serve right from the cake pan.
After cooled, take a skewer or sharp pointed knife and make holes all over in the cake.
In a bowl whisk together the coconut milk, half & half, heavy cream.
Pour this over the cake into all the holes. Allow to stand for 30 minutes.
While the cake is resting You'll need to prep the finishing touches: whipping cream and sliced, fresh strawberries!
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer, combine the heavy whipping cream, Lakanto Monkfruit Powdered Sweetener and Lakanto Vanilla Liquid MonkFruit Extract.
Whip the mixture on medium-low until it starts to thicken.
Continue mixing on medium-high until stiff peaks form.
Pipe the whipped cream on your Tres Leches Cake.
Slice strawberries and place on top with a sprinkling of cinnamon.
Refrigerate at least one hour before serving.
This cake really is a dream, and it's relatively simple, too! If you've had a similar, but sugar-filled recipe in your family for years, we'd love to see how you like the Lakanto version. It's still authentic and traditional, just without all the excess carbohydrates from sugar.
Chilled desserts are some of our favorites because they naturally enhance the flavor of our monk fruit sweetener—plus, there's just something refreshing about finishing off a meal with a cool temp'd palette cleanser. If you're serving a spicy meal, this is a great last course to bring your tastebuds to their happy place.

Can I use the Simple Syrup the same way I use the classic sugar- 1:1 ?
It appears to be missing the instruction for when to add the salt. I am going to assume it is in step 1 with the dry ingredients…,I sure hope by assuming, I don’t mess this up. :) please update recipe and thank you very much for all you to to ensure we all are able to cook delicious recipes!!
What is the difference between the classic Lankato and baking lankato???? I have 5 bags of classic.
