what is a carnivore cake made from ?

A carnivore cake is made from 100% animal-based ingredients like eggs, beef tallow or butter, collagen or whey protein, and sometimes cream cheese or heavy cream. It’s sugar-free, flourless, and perfect for those following a strict carnivore or keto-carnivore diet.

Ingredients

• 6 large eggs (room temp)
• 1/2 cup beef tallow (or you can use melted butter or ghee)
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cacao powder (yes, technically a plant — optional for “pure” carnivores)
• 1/4 cup unflavored collagen or whey isolate protein (for fluff + extra protein)
• 2-3 tbsp monk fruit or powdered erythritol (optional for a little sweetness)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional but yum)
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Prep Time:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small 6-inch cake pan with beef tallow or line it with parchment paper to make sure the cake doesn’t stick.

2. Blend the Wet Ingredients:
Crack 6 large eggs into a mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup of beef tallow (melted but not hot). Using a whisk or hand mixer, beat the mixture until it becomes foamy and smooth.

3. Add the Dry Ingredients:
To the wet mixture, add 1/4 cup of cacao powder, 1/4 cup of collagen or whey protein powder, a pinch of salt, vanilla extract, and sweetener if using. Mix everything together until the batter is completely smooth and lump-free.

4. Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, checking around the 18-minute mark. You’ll know it’s done when the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean. Avoid overbaking for a moist texture.

5. Cool & Serve:
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then carefully flip it out onto a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.
