20 min
Step 1
Combine the almond flour, baking powder, ⅛ tsp pure monk fruit, ⅛ tsp kosher salt, one large egg, and 2 tsp of avocado oil in a large coffee mug. Stir well using a spoon to combine it all until smooth. Cook the mug in the microwave on high heat for 1 minute and 10 seconds until the biscuit is cooked through completely. The biscuit should be puffed nicely. Allow it to cool slightly before removing from the mug. It should pull away from the sides as it cools, making it easy to remove.Step 2
While the biscuit is cooling, dice the strawberries and place them in a small bowl. Add in ⅛ tsp of pure monk fruit sweetener and a pinch of salt to bring out the sweetness. Stir well and set aside.Step 3
Cut the biscuit in half and place it on a plate. Place the heavy cream into a small bowl. Whip using a whisk until frothy, then add ⅛ teaspoon of pure monk fruit powder (optional). Whisk until soft peaks form.Step 4
Divide the whipped cream between the two biscuit halves. Then divide the diced strawberries between the two biscuits as well. Serve immediately!
