  • Blanch the zucchini in the boiling water for 5 minutes.
    Drain the zucchini from the water and immediately blend in a food processor until smooth. Let this cool for 5 minutes before adding to the cake batter.

  • Pour all of the cake batter into the greased cake pan. Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes at 325°F/162°C or until a toothpick poked in the center comes out clean.
    Alternatively, you can use a digital thermometer to test the inside of the cake. Once the inside reaches 200°F/94°C it's ready.

  • While the cake bakes, make the toffee sauce.
    Combine the Allulose and butter in a large, shallow pan. Bring to a simmer over low heat and stir briefly with a whisk (watch carefully as allulose burns faster than sugar).
    Once the sweetener and butter become a medium brown colour, add the Swerve brown and whisk in. Continue cooking for 1 minute to dissolve the Swerve and then turn off the heat.
    Slowly add the cream to the caramel (be careful as it may splatter) and whisk until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and simmer for 1 minute to thicken the sauce.

  • Pour about ⅓ of the toffee sauce over the cake and let cool for about 1 hour.

    Enjoy!

Notes

*Recipe inspiration from King Arthur Flour Baking, Big Man's World, All Day I Dream About Food and Wholesum Yum
*This recipe yields 500ml of sauce which is more than enough. If you want to make less you can probably get away with making a half batch but it's nice to have leftover sauce to stir into coffee or keto ice cream!
