Making desserts is more complicated when following a Ketosis Diet. I can attest to that! I've been looking for dessert recipes for a while. Lucky for you, I modified this classic Gluten-Free Streusel coffee cake recipe. There were some interesting things I had to do to make it keto-friendly. Read on to discover how I created this delicious and keto-friendly dish.

First I had to make the "brown sugar (affiliate)" sugar-free, I had to go back to basics and make it from scratch. To do this, I took ½ cup of monk fruit and 1 teaspoon of blackstrap molasses. I took a fork and stirred the blackstrap molasses in with the monk fruit. Then added the other ingredients below.
Ingredients:
For Streusel:
⅔ cup gluten-free flour
½ cup monk fruit
1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses
1 teaspoon cinnamon (affiliate)
6 tablespoon butter, unsalted, softened
½ cup chocolate chips, Stevia flavored - I used Lily’s Chocolate Chips
For cake:
1 box of Swerve vanilla cake - make as the box instructed
How do you make a keto streusel coffee cake?
First, to make the streusel, add all the ingredients except the molasses. Mix well, then add the molasses with a spoon and stir in. Place the mixture in a bowl and set it aside.
Then, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a nine-by-nine-inch baking pan. A Glass baking pan is probably better than an aluminum one. The aluminum baking dish needs more time to cook.
Make the Swerve vanilla cake. I love this brand because it already uses a sugar alternative.
Pour the streusel on top. It should look like this. You don't need to stir it in. Just place it on top.
Then, place in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the center is firm. This will change depending on the type of 9x9 you use.
