Step 1

Preheat your oven to 420 degrees. Brush the insides of two 6-ounce ramekins with coconut oil. Add a teaspoon of cocoa powder to each and roll the ramekins so the cocoa powder covers all inside edges.

Step 2

Place the chocolate and coconut oil in a large frying pan over LOW heat and let the chocolate slowly melt. When it has mostly melted, whisk until smooth and remove the pan from the heat.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, egg yolks, Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides, sugar, vanilla, and sea salt on high for 1 minute. Pour the melted chocolate into the bowl and sprinkle with the almond flour. Gently fold the chocolate into the eggs.

Step 4

Divide the batter between the two ramekins, filling nearly to the top. Bake the lava cakes for 10-12 minutes. They are done when the tops have a solid dry crust but still jiggle when shaken. Do not over bake them.

Step 5

Let them cool for 1 minute then run a knife along the sides to loosen them. Place a plate on top of one then flip the plate over so the ramekin is upside down on the plate. Carefully remove the ramekin. Garnish with any or all of the optional toppings and serve right away.
