In this video, the Keto Twins try out a high-protein, three-ingredient carnivore cake recipe shared by Skyler (link in description). They are currently on a carnivore diet challenge to slim down and are documenting their journey on their other channel, Emily and Sarah. The recipe includes eggs, butter, and optional heavy cream for topping, with vanilla extract added for flavour (though not strictly carnivore).

  • They are trying a simple carnivore cake recipe with only three ingredients.
  • They are documenting their carnivore diet journey on their other channel.
  • Element is the video sponsor, and they highlight the importance of electrolytes on a keto or carnivore diet.

Introduction to Carnivore Diet and Recipe

The Keto Twins, Sarah and Emily, are currently undertaking a carnivore diet challenge to lose weight after the New Year. They are documenting their experiences, including any complaints, on their other YouTube channel, Emily and Sarah. While they typically focus on a relaxed approach to keto, they are exploring the carnivore diet, which is currently popular. The recipe they are trying is a simple, three-ingredient carnivore cake shared by Skyler, whose account is linked in the description.

Importance of Electrolytes and Element Sponsor

The twins emphasise that even while on the carnivore diet, they continue to consume electrolytes daily through Element, which has been their go-to supplement since 2020 and is the sponsor of this video. Element contains 1,000mg of sodium, 200mg of potassium, and 60mg of magnesium, which are essential for replenishing electrolytes lost during ketosis. This loss can lead to fatigue, muscle cramps, or the "keto flu". They recommend the Citrus Salt and Grapefruit Salt flavours. Element offers a return policy, and the Keto Twins community can receive a free sample pack of eight flavours with any purchase by visiting drinklmnt.com/ketotwins.

Cake Ingredients and Preparation

For the carnivore cake recipe, you will need eggs, butter, and heavy cream for topping. Sweetener and vanilla extract are optional, though the twins add vanilla for flavour. They appreciate the simplicity of this recipe compared to other extravagant carnivore recipes they've tried. The preparation involves using a blender, preheating the oven to 175°C, and melting a stick of butter in the microwave.

Mixing and Baking the Cake

The twins blend four eggs with the melted (and slightly cooled) butter and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. They pour the batter into a non-stick pan, although greasing the pan is recommended if you're concerned about sticking. The cake is then baked for 20 minutes.

Preparing the Whipped Cream and Cake Appearance

While the cake bakes, they prepare heavy whipped cream without any sweetener to top the cake. They whip one cup of heavy cream until it's fluffy. After baking, the cake collapses slightly, which they expected. They flip the cake over, creating a divot perfect for holding the whipped cream.

Tasting and Final Thoughts

The twins try the carnivore cake with the whipped cream topping. They note that it tastes like butter and eggs, with a subtle sweetness that they attribute to their reduced tolerance for sweeteners due to being on keto. They compare the taste to a German pancake or Dutch Baby. They suggest that using high-quality butter and eggs, such as European sweet cream butter, would enhance the flavour. They also mention that this cake is a good way to break up the monotony of a strict protein and fat diet. They encourage viewers to share other carnivore recipes in the comments and to follow their carnivore journey on their second channel.

0:45 Chipotle with a double serving of guacamole on top that's keto I mean it's not carnivore but people are just doing whatever they want and I'm here for it I'm all about finding what works for you but in my head I was thinking that's keto keto but carnivore is having a moment yeah but carnivore is having a moment and so we are going to jump on that bandwagon as well to see if we could slim down a little bit we want to lose weight and so that is where we're going to be documenting that and this is what we're going to be eating on that the creator of this recipe or the person that shared it is named Skyler we'll leave a link to her account in the description below the video in case you want to check it out so even though Sarah and I are trying carnivore for a short time we are not skipping out on our electrolytes so we do drink element every day just like we have been since

2:17 keto twins Community a free sample pack to try eight of their flavors with any purchase so you can buy the Citrus salt and get a free sample pack in order to get this deal you must go to drink LM nt.com kwins so for this recipe you're going to be needing eggs and butter and heavy cream if you want to put that on top which we definitely are you could add sweetener if you want but we're going to be adding vanilla she adds vanilla in her recipe this is probably not carnivore but I'm adding it you know a lot of times Carnival recipes that we've tried on our Channel they're pretty extravagant like they're a lot of work they have a lot of different ingredients like mashed potatoes that were actually eggs with the beef gelatin that we cooked for 30 minutes and turned it yellow like there

3:02 was a lot going on with this it's fairly simple so even we can't mess this up right Pier's hoping anyway so you're going to be needing a blender we're going to be preheating our oven to 350° and we are going to melt our butter in the microwave so it's going to be a stick of butter how long um a minute whatever a minute not even a minute I put a minute it's too long okay I think I should stir it because you don't want to burn it right I also don't want it exploding all over their microwave which I've done many a time in the past it's not it's barely melting so we're going to put it in for 30 more seconds melted butter I'm going to put this off to the side we're going to get started with our

3:49 eggs all righty I don't think it's on right yeah this I think this thing should be in the front don't put that on yet you have to put the egg in there hello okay four eggs get get okay I feel like I'm talking to my dogs that's what I say to them every day get get out of here get inside all righty right we're going to pour the butter in it's kind of hot so we actually took a short break like 2 minutes because I feel like the butter is too hot and I don't want the EG to scramble since I heated the butter up in the microwave we're going to add in a teaspoon of vanilla and then we're going to pour in our butter that has been cooled down and it's only slightly warm now leave out the uh vanilla if you're

4:37 want to be truly truly right well a lot of people use honey right it's like that's from an animal so [Applause] okay looks like butter and eggs okay so we have this non-stick pan we're going to use this um to pour it in if you are worried about it you should probably grease your pan but I'm pretty sure this is this will do a great job of being on Stick going to pour this batter in here is that going to rise I doubt it it says that we're going to cook this for 20 minutes be something all right here's open be something oh my gosh that's crazy wait

5:23 wait maybe we should allow it to um okay we're going to let it fall the one in the picture did didn't do that I'm amazed and guess what it smells really good probably because of the vanilla but it smells custardy or something I'm excited are you excited are you excited I'm hungry I'm ready to eat so we're going to start whipping up some heavy cream because that's what we're going to be putting on top to give us that dessert type of thing no sweetener no sweetener just heavy whipping cream I mean no okay let's pour heavy whipping cream in a bowl and start beating it we're going to do a cup um I know that sounds like a lot but I just don't know how we're going to beat it less than that you know in this bowl plus with carnivore you can't have much but you can have as much as you want see

6:08 you in 10 minutes oh it's not plugged in nice and fluffy o luxurious even don't do that so it has collapsed but that was expected I don't know how to take it out of here I'm just going to as long as it doesn't go on the floor okay what kind of cake is that okay we've eaten more wa you're giving half to me and half to you what no yeah flip it over this is a nice divot for all the cream see it's perfect it makes perfect sense okay so we're going to let our carnivore cake cool we'll dollop some of this cream on there and we're going to downstairs and try [Music] it is it crooked that'ss CR

6:56 good kind of reminds me of like a German pancake you know what I'm talking Dutch Baby M mhm have you ever had that Noe dollop of whipped cream on it no sweetener but I guess cream does have some okay that's all thank you I don't need anymore who would say no to more with cream what a weirdo I want a ladylike amount okay it tastes like it tastes like an butter and eggs right I mean there's some sweetness there I think that I can taste that because you know we've been keto our level for sweetness has gone down I guess or our level like Toler our tolerance for sweetener has gone down and we're like more sensitive to it so I think we could taste those like natural flavors a little bit more but if you're

7:42 just going from like last week you're eating hoo so this week you're eating carnivore you might be like no way it's not sweet enough so I mean could you have put some Stevia in there yeah sure are we going to tell anybody no but we tried to do it the way of the carnivore no sweetener but vanilla yeah that was our one she eat here I'm not offended by it I quite like it it's like kind of custardy in the middle I mean I think if you would have added you know you could have added sweetener into this too not just the whipped cream it it would taste like sweet pancake yeah pancake I think also the things that you use in it are kind of important like high quality butter high quality eggs like that European sweet cream butter would probably be good here do you know what I'm talking about I think you know on Carnivore

8:28 you're just eating like a protein and a protein I mean that's all you're eating protein and a fat and so this is kind of changing it up getting maybe like a pancake feel or a cake feel exactly to break up like the monotony of eating juste protein like a chicken breast shrimp fish this tastes kind of like special right what do they call this like an Elimination Diet right where you eliminate a lot of stuff then you start appreciating things like sweetener MH or cinnamon or something I don't know like herbs I'm excited to keep on our Journey if you guys want to see um us on this journey you can go to our second Channel Emily and Sarah and see if we lose weight not done yet so we're in the middle and if you guys have any other carnivore recipes that you want us to try let us know in the comments section below we would love to hear it because it was good it's simple and good three
