Sometime you want cake, but not a whole cake. Then these cute Mini Strawberry Cakes are your go to. They are so easy to make and everyone will love them. Did I mention they are gluten free, dairy free, grain free, sugar free and vegan? And they will taste delicious!

The base for these cakes are muffins made out of apple sauce, nut butter, almond flour and coconut flour. I used apple sauce as sweetener in the muffins. I just baked the muffins, turned them upside down, divided them in two and filled with vanilla cream and whipped coconut cream and topped with strawberries. For the vanilla and whipped coconut cream I used stevia drops as sweeteners. But you can replace that with any sweetener you like.


Ingredients for the Mini Strawberry Cakes:
- Almond flour
- Coconut flour
- Unsweetened apple sauce (preferably home made)
- Nut butter
- Baking powder
- Lemon juice
- Strawberries
- Almond milk
- Tapioca flour
- Vanilla stevia drops/vanilla extract
- Coconut milk
