Egg and Grain Free Blueberry Coffee Cake

March 6, 2013 By Caitlin Weeks

Egg and Grain Free Blueberry Coffee Cake

My friend Mary has an egg allergy and I probably do too. I wanted to make a breakfast cake that was egg free but still tasty. Let me know what you think of it.

Egg and Grain Free Blueberry Coffee Cake

Updated October 2015

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups unsweetened applesauce (where to buy)

1/2 cup chia seeds (where to buy)

1 cup coconut flour (where to buy)

1 teaspoon baking soda (where to buy)

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt (where to buy)

1/2 cup coconut oil, melted (where to buy)

1/4 cup honey (where to buy honey) or 1 teaspoon of stevia extract powder (where to buy stevia)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup blueberries

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350˚ F. Line a small baking dish with a strip of parchment paper on the bottom only.

2. Mix the chia seeds and applesauce and let it sit for about 10 minutes, until a gel forms.

3. Mix the coconut flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add the coconut oil and mix well. Then mix in the chia-applesauce gel, sweetener and lemon juice. Add the blueberries and gently combine.

4. Pour the mixture into a baking dish. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the middle is set. For a lower carb version: Use 2 1/2 cups pumpkin puree in place of applesauce and use stevia option instead of honey.

    This is brilliant. I found out I was allergic to eggs, both white and yolk and also follow paleo lifestyle and find it very challenging without eggs which I love. So thank you so much for these wonderful ideas as almost all paleo recipes include eggs especially for baked goods Awesome. I have ordered your book. ♥

    This coffee cake is AWESOME! Thanks for sharing. I even left out the baking powder and it was fine – maybe it would have risen more? It was perfect. My husband and I are on GAPS, but we still can’t have eggs or nuts, so this fit the bill. Thank you.

    Is this a low carb recipe?? I didn’t see the nutrition info.

      It has very few carbs if you use the stevia. The only significant source of carbs is applesauce. It is about 20 carbs for 1 cup of sugar free applesauce.
