This healthy lava cake is so moist and delicious, has only 6 ingredients and is paleo, gluten-free and refined sugar-free. Get ready for ooey gooey goodness!
What I love about this recipe is the warm chocolate center. It is perfectly molten and has just the right about of sweetness. Plus, it is super easy to make while being a showstopper.
The key to making healthy lava cakes is the bake time. You can’t overcook these or the center will harden, and you don’t want to undercook it because you want the outside to be set. I suggest keeping an eye on these when you bake them because every oven can be different, but once you find that sweet spot, oh my!
