I was so happy that Sofia from bakingowl.com was willing to share her mouthwatering recipe for gluten and refined sugar free chocolate lava cakes! Ummm I mean who doesn't love cakes exploding with chocolate? Thank you so much Sofia for your recipe! Over to you now! 
My name is Sofia Abbas and I'm 13 years old. I've been baking since I was 6 years old. I started my weekly baking blog (bakingowl.com) during December of 2012 and I've been blogging ever since. In the past year, I've been experimenting a lot with healthy baking. As my dad is vegan and gluten free, I try to develop many healthy yet delicious recipes along with my normal recipes. Besides creating recipes, I love to make decorated cakes, cookies, cupcakes, etc. I aspire to become a pastry chef or study the field of food sciences and nutrition. I'm grateful to have so much support from my family and friends.
Lava Cake:


Ingredients:

5 tablespoons of unsalted butter

3/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/4 cup of dark chocolate chips

2 egg yolks

2 eggs

4 tablespoons of coconut sugar

1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons of coconut flour

pinch of salt

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla

Raspberries to garnish

Cocoa powder or Powdered Sugar for dusting

Directions:

1. Grease 4  6 oz. ramekins with butter or cooking spray.

2. Melt your chocolate chips and butter using the double boiler method or a microwave. If using a microwave, melt in 30 second increments. Let cool for at least 10 minutes.

3. Whisk the eggs, egg yolks, and coconut sugar in a large bowl until it gets frothy.

4. Add the cooled chocolate mixture into the egg mixture.

5. In a smaller bowl, whisk the coconut flour, cocoa powder, and salt together.

6. Combine the coconut flour mixture into the chocolate and egg mixture and then stir in the vanilla extract.

7. Split the batter between the ramekins and cover with plastic wrap. Let them sit in the fridge for about a half an hour. 

8. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.

9. Then place the ramekins into a deep oven safe dish and pour hot water into the dish about half way up the sides of the ramekins.

10. Bake for 17-18 minutes.The cakes shouldn't look all the way done, but the sides of the cakes should pull away from the ramekins.

11. Once done, let cakes cool for about 15 minutes before running a knife around the sides of the cakes and flipping them upside down onto a serving platter. Dust with cocoa powder or powdered sugar (the cakes won't be completely sugar free if using powdered sugar) and garnish with fresh raspberries if you'd like.
