This almond berry cake is a delightful balance of sweet and tart flavours, with a moist and tender crumb.
This gluten free almond berry cake is a delicious dessert that is naturally gluten free and combines the rich, nutty flavour of almonds with the sweet and tangy taste of fresh berries. It is made by mixing almond flour, chickpea flour, sugar, eggs, and vegan butter, and then folding in fresh berries, such as raspberries or blueberries. The batter is then baked in a cake pan until it is golden brown and cooked through.
