⅔ cup olive oil, plus more for oiling baking dish
1 cup cooked and blended sweet potato from 1 large or
2 medium potatoes
1 cup maple syrup
¼ cup coconut sugar
3 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cups almond flour
1 cup gluten free oat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
Ice cream for serving
Caramel sauce:
½ cup coconut oil
½ cup maple syrup
2 tbsp coconut sugar
¼ cup almond butter
Pinch of sea salt
To make cake, preheat oven to 350°F.
Note: I didn't show this in the video but it's best to blend sweet potato with maple syrup so it blends easier and smooths out.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, sweet potato, maple syrup, coconut sugar, eggs and vanilla and whisk well.
Add in almond flour, oat flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients, mix until no clumps remain and transfer to an oiled or parchment lined 9 inch round cake pan.
