Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 oz Dark chocolate (sugar free or very low sugar) Choose a flavor you enjoy.
- 2 tbsp Butter Grease ramekins with this.
- 2 large Eggs Use room temperature for best results.
- 1 tbsp Keto sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit blend) Adjust amount to taste.
- 1 tbsp Cocoa powder Boosts the chocolate flavor.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425 F. Grease two small ramekins with butter and dust them lightly with cocoa powder.
- Melt the chocolate and butter together in a microwave in short bursts, stirring each time until smooth. Let cool slightly.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the keto sweetener until well mixed.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and stir until smooth. Stir in the cocoa powder until thick and glossy.
- Divide the batter between the ramekins.
- Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, until the edges look set but the center is still soft.
- Let rest for 1 minute, then run a knife around the edges and flip onto a plate or serve directly from the ramekin.
Notes
Do not overbake for the best lava center. Sweetener choice can alter texture; powdered sweeteners work better for smoothness. Serve with whipped cream or berries for added flavor.
