# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Preheat oven to 175°C. Grease the sides and bottom of an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking dish, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
02 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, confectioners swerve sweetener, baking powder, and ground cayenne until evenly blended.
03 - In a separate bowl, beat melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract together using an electric hand mixer on low speed for about 30 seconds until combined.
04 - Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and beat on low speed for about 30 seconds until fully incorporated and smooth, producing a thick batter.
05 - Use a rubber spatula to fold diced jalapeños, scallions, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese evenly into the batter.
06 - Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - For increased heat, retain some jalapeño seeds when dicing.
02 - Mix all ingredients thoroughly for a uniform texture.
03 - Store any leftovers in an airtight container refrigerated.
