Method

  1. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and base-line and grease a deep 20cm loose-bottomed cake tin. Blitz the ground almonds, butter, sugar, flour, eggs and vanilla extract in a food processor until well combined.
  2. Spread half the mix over the cake tin and smooth over the top. Scatter the raspberries over, then dollop the remaining cake mixture on top and roughly spread - you might find this easier to do with your fingers. Scatter with flaked almonds and bake for 50 mins until golden. Cool, remove from the tin and dust with icing sugar to serve.

    What an absolutely delicious cake. Have made this twice now and both times it came out superb. The cake mix is rather thick so needs a bit of patience to spread in the tin, but well worth it.

    This receipe is simple easy and delicious! As I'm a baking dummy, its so reassuring to have a cake recipe that actually works! Although i did put an extra egg in as the mixture was too stiff. I've made this twice now and am destined to continue

    Works every time, I've made it with plums - rhubarb - raspberries - apples. I softened the rhubarb and apples a little before adding. My daughter calls this cake 'comfort food' - so easy, delicious!

    I live in Spain and you don't see self rising flour at the supermarkets, so if anyone has the same problem, I found how to substitute, here it goes: One cup self-rising flour equals: 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder, plus 1/8 teaspoons salt. Haven't made it yet but with so many great reviews, It has to be really good!

    This cake is so yummy! I made it yesterday and when I woke up this morning it was almost finished! I didn't use fresh raspberries, instead I dotted blobs of raspberry jam and it tasted delicious! I also used almond extract instead of vanilla extract. I think next time I'll double the recipe as it finished so quickly!

    An excellent recipe served warm it makes a lovely dessert with creme friaché, also excellent the next day and oh so easy. It would also be really nice with crubled amaretti biscuits on top or the raspberries.

    Dead easy and delicious for any occasion. Mixture was much stiffer than I thought it would be but it melted in the oven to perfection.

    Can you use frozen berries? Would I need to defrost them or can I throw them straight in?

    Yummy! Made this with blueberries rather than raspberries as that was what we had in. Very tasty and easy, and it came out looking like the picture!

    So easy and delicious. I tried the suggestion of adding a tsp of almond essence and a few dots of raspberry jam and it was wonderful. Will def be making again.
