Instructions

Homemade low-carb cake for trifle

Start heating the oven to 320 °F (160 °C) and prepare an 8-inch round pan with a disc of parchment on the bottom and a strip of parchment around the sides. Grease the paper lightly with butter or oil spray.
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl until combined: 3/4 cup protein powder, 1/3 cup coconut flour, 1/3 to 1/2 cup powdered sweetener, 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1 pinch salt.
Create a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add 3 large eggs, melted (but not hot) 1/4 cup butter, 1/2 cup low-carb milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Start mixing from the middle and as the eggs are mixed start incorporating the dry mix around it , scraping the sides. If you are using a hand mixer, stop and scrape the sides with a spatula at least a couple of times to ensure every little bit of the batter is well combined.
Transfer into the pan lined with parchment paper and greased and bake in the preheated oven at 320 °F (160 °C) for about 30 minutes until the top is golden and the cake springs back when you poke a finger in the middle.

How to assemble the yogurt trifle

Mix the 2 cups Greek yogurt and 1 scoop casein protein powder, vanilla flavored very well until it's smooth and creamy. If you prefer not to add protein, you can use just Greek yogurt. Sweeten it to taste if needed.
Make the trifle layers: Start with some Greek yogurt so the cake isn't dry on the bottom. Then layer cake, berries, and yogurt. Repeat until the trifle glasses or dish is full. Finish with some berries on top to make it pretty!

Notes

This recipe makes 4 1-cup servings of yogurt trifle. If you wish to make it in a large trifle dish for 8 servings, just double the amount of ingredients.
To make 4 individual trifles, each requiring 1/2 cup of cubed cake (totaling 2 cups), you will need about 2 slices or one-fourth of a 8" cake. Enjoy the rest of the cake, or make more trifles!
If you're making the cake recipe above, this protein baking blend ratio of 60% whey to 40% casein is the one that gives the best results. You can also use pure unflavored whey protein.
