Ingredients

Rum Cake:

½ cup Finely chopped pecans
1 cup Superfine almond flour
1 ⅓ cup Allulose Use 1 cup if using an erythritol blend or other cup-for-cup substitute.
⅔ cup Vanilla Flavoured Whey Protein Powder
¼ cup Coconut Flour
1 tablespoon Baking powder
1 ½ teaspoon Xanthan gum
¾ teaspoon Salt
4 Large eggs
⅓ cup Rum
⅓ cup Almond milk

Rum Soak:

¼ cup Butter
2 tablespoon Water
⅔ cup Allulose Use ½ cup if using an erythritol blend or other cup-for-cup substitute.
¼ cup Amber Rum

Instructions

Rum Cakes:

Preheat oven to 350F (180 C), arrange 2 sets of silicone mini bundt pans on a large cookie sheet, spray with pan spray.
Divide chopped pecans among the bundt pan cavities - a little more than 1 teaspoon per, for 12.
Combine almond flour, allulose, protein powder, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, beat together eggs, rum, and almond milk. Pour into bowl of dry ingredients, mix until smooth.
Divide dough into into prepared the prepared mini bundt pans, filling each about ¾ full. I like to spoon the dough into a large pastry bag and pipe it in, I find it a lot less messy.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Check for doneness - insert a toothpick or knife into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean, it's done. If not, continue baking until it's fully baked.
While the cakes are baking, prepare the rum soak:

Rum Soak:

Combine butter, water, allulose, and rum in a small saucepan. Allow to heat to a simmer, then remove from heat and allow to cool.
When the cakes are fulled baked, remove from the oven, poke the exposed cake all over with a fork.
Evenly pour the rum soak over the cakes, allow to cool for about 10 minutes before turning cakes out directly onto serving plate(s).
