For those of you who enjoy a red velvet cake, try this easy red velvet roll cake. It's a butter free sponge recipe that you could use for other swiss roll cake flavours too.

How to make a red velvet roll

This is a simple keto dessert recipe that takes just 15 to 20 minutes to bake. I find that it's a great dessert to make when I'm having a "multi-tasking" moment in the kitchen.

What you need

Just a few ingredients are need to make this cake.

  • Eggs - I use medium sized eggs
  • Coconut Flour - I'm yet to try a roll cake with almond flour. Coconut flour is my current choice
  • Monkfruit - I enjoy a monkfruit/erythritol blend for my sweetener but any other low carb sweetener will work.
  • Cocoa - Sugar free of course! I used 100% cocoa.
  • Red food colouring - No red velvet cake would be complete without it!
  • Vanilla extract
  • Baking powder

Recipe Tips

You may have leftover cream cheese filling. I found that this recipe made a large batch of filling and although I slathered as much as the sponge could take on, there was still a bit leftover. Use if for another recipe or enjoy it slathered over pancakes or waffles. Or eat it with a spoon over the kitchen sink 😉

Calories 325 kcal

Ingredients

Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup monkfruit sweetener or other low carb sweetener
  • 1 ½ cups cream heavy
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Make the sponge

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees

  • Grease and line a rectangle baking tin ( 9 x 13 inch, 22.9cm x 33cm) with parchment paper.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

  • In another medium bowl, beat the egg yolks, vanilla and monkfruit together.

  • Add the coconut flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and red food colouring. Mix well and add any additional colouring to get the shade of red you want.

  • Gently fold in the egg whites until you have an even coloured batter.

  • Pour the cake batter into the baking tin and smooth evenly.

  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until firm.

  • Remove the baking tin from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes.

  • Put a large piece of parchment paper on your countertop and place the baking tin on the parchment paper, sponge facing down. Remove the tin from the sponge.

  • Using the parchment paper on the top of the sponge, gently roll up the cake. This is to keep the sponge in the correct shape before adding the filling.

  • Set aside to cool.

Make the Filling

  • Whisk the cream cheese and the monkfruit sweetener in a medium bowl until smooth.

  • Add the vanilla extract and the cream. Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and thick enough to spread.

To Assemble

  • Gently unroll the cake, remove the top layer of parchment paper and spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the sponge.

  • Using the outer layer of parchment paper roll up the sponge again.

  • Trim the edges for a neater sponge.

  • Slice, eat and enjoy!

    Do you whip the cream first? It doesn't say.

    Thanks for posting this! I don’t eat egg. Can I use flaxseed meal instead of egg?
