Tonkotsu Miso Ramen from Ramen One

Happy Friday! It's our first time eating out in 2025, and we’re checking out a relatively new spot, Ramen One, located along West Broadway between Cambie and Yukon.

The rainy weather makes it the perfect day for a warm bowl of ramen. What sets Ramen One apart is its unique ambiance and service. Each diner gets their own private booth (similar to those you’d find in Japan), and your ramen is served through a little window — it's actually pretty fun!

I tried the Spicy Tonkotsu Miso Ramen, and it did not disappoint. The chashu was tender, the soft-boiled eggs were just right, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. Super satisfying!

It might not be the best ramen in Vancouver, but if you're in the area and craving a bowl with a bit of privacy, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Keto Cinnamon-Almond Cake in the Air Fryer

Here's a keto-friendly air fryer cake recipe using some of the ingredients you listed. This will be a simple, almond flour-based, cinnamon-spiced cake, perfect for a sweet keto treat!


Keto Cinnamon-Almond Cake in the Air Fryer

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Almond Flour
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 2 tbsp Butter (melted)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp Sugar Substitute (to taste, such as stevia or erythritol)
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil (for greasing the air fryer pan)

Directions:

  1. Prepare the air fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C). Lightly grease a small cake pan or silicone mold with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, cinnamon, sugar substitute, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract together.
  4. Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well until fully combined. If you want a peanut butter swirl, gently stir in the peanut butter at this stage.
  5. Pour and smooth: Pour the batter into the greased cake pan or mold (I used a 6-inch oven-safe baking pan). Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Air fry: Place the pan into the air fryer basket and cook for about 25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool: Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan. You can optionally serve it with a few mandarin slices on top for added flavor and decoration.
  8. Serve: Slice and enjoy!

This cake is lightly spiced with cinnamon, rich with almond flavor, and perfectly keto-friendly. If you want to make it more decadent, a dollop of peanut butter on top or mixing it into the batter will add creaminess and depth. Enjoy your keto dessert!
