Flourless Black Cocoa & Chia Greek Yogurt Cake

Ingredients

• 1 cup black cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup chia seeds
• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan with a bit of coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the black cocoa powder, chia seeds, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
4. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake springs back when gently pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
