Ingredients
  

  • cup coconut flour
  • cup butter or coconut oil melted
  • 4 organic eggs
  • 2-4 tablespoons honey agave or coconut nectar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 16 ounces ripe strawberries
  • 8 ounces organic heavy whipping cream
  • 2-4 tablespoons organic sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 3 ramekins or muffin tins with butter or coconut oil. In a large bowl, beat together melted butter (or coconut oil), honey, eggs and vanilla.
  • In another bowl, measure the coconut flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and beat until well-combined and no lumps remain. Pour into 3 ramekins (leave room for the shortcakes to to rise).
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cakes are golden brown and a sharp knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool for 5 minutes then carefully remove from ramekins. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • While cakes are baking, slice strawberries into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir and let berries macerate until time to serve.
  • Next, whip your cream in a bowl and add a couple tablespoons of sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • When cakes are cool and your ready to serve, split each cake in half. Place bottom half on a plate and spoon strawberries and juice over each cake. Top with a big dollop of whipped cream. Put the top half on, spoon another dollop of whipped cream and more strawberries. Enjoy!
