  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare pan: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line/grease a 9-inch cake pan.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together eggs, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and vanilla.
  4. Blend wet and dry mixtures: Mix wet and dry ingredients until a thick batter forms.
  5. Bake: Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 28–32 minutes until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.

Notes

  • Let chia seeds bloom in the wet mix for 5 minutes before baking for best texture.
  • Add chocolate chips or nuts for extra richness.
  • Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 5 days or freeze slices for 2 months.
