Description
A light and airy sugar-free Swiss roll made with a soft almond flour sponge and filled with a rich vanilla cream. This elegant rolled cake is low in carbs, beautifully spiraled, and perfect for a guilt-free dessert or special occasion treat.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar-free sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit blend)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar-free sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar-free sweetener (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper, lightly greasing it.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer on high speed for 4–5 minutes until pale, thick, and fluffy.
- Gradually add the sugar-free sweetener and vanilla extract while continuing to beat until smooth and airy.
- In another bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture using a spatula, keeping the batter light and airy.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until the cake is lightly golden and springs back when touched.
- While still warm, lift the cake using the parchment paper and roll it gently with a clean kitchen towel from the short side. Let it cool completely.
- In a bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sweetener, vanilla extract, and cream cheese until thick and fluffy.
- Carefully unroll the cooled cake and spread the vanilla cream evenly across the surface.
- Roll the cake back up tightly without the towel, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Dust with powdered sugar-free sweetener if desired, slice, and serve chilled.
Notes
- Roll the cake while it is still warm to prevent cracking.
- Beat the eggs well to create a light and airy sponge texture.
- Use cold heavy cream for the best whipped filling consistency.
- Chilling the roll helps the filling set and makes slicing easier.
- Use a sharp knife wiped clean between slices for neat spirals.
