Ingredients
1/3 cup plain flour
2/3 cup almond meal
1 cup of icing sugar
90g of butter melted
3 egg whites lightly beaten
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1 cup of frozen or fresh strawberries
What to do
Preheat oven to 180 degrees (160 for fan forced).
Combine flour, almond meal, icing sugar, butter, egg whites and vanilla in a bowl. Mix until smooth.
Fold berries through.
Spoon into a greased and lined with baking paper, 18cm round cake tin.
Pop into the oven for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and the centre springs back to gentle touch.
Let cool for 5-10mins then remove from cake tin and let cool further.
Cut and serve with fresh whipped cream and fresh raspberries.
Yum!!! I promise you this is the most amazing cake ever. And when warm the berries are like little pockets of berry sauce that explode in your mouth!
The added beauty of it is that you can double the mixture for a bigger cake or make it into cupcakes instead.
You can add mixed berries frozen or fresh, or try any sort of fruit that you like!
I think it would be wickedly indulgent with some white choc chips and the raspberries.
I have even served it warm with a raspberry and white chocolate sauce and ice cream as a dessert!
Hope you enjoy!
PS the photo was of the one I made last night with mixed frozen berries, was the best comfort food ever!
man I wish I had some almond meal in the pantry, note to self put almond meal on shopping list!
