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.

    Possibly the easiest cake I have ever made and totally delicious. Used the magimix to mix the ingredients and a 250g frozen raspberries. Bob really is your uncle with this one.

    I made a low-GI version of this using splenda instead of sugar and semolina instead of the flour. Made a denser crumb but still very tasty. It was wolfed down by the whole family.

    Fantastic recipe, very easy to make and so delicious! The three of us literally demolished half in one sitting. I used frozen raspberries which worked and a bigger pan. Came out slightly flatter but otherwise like the picture! Thanks Good Food!

    Beautiful texture, used blueberries instead of Raspberries, whcih was a great success. This cake tastes even better the next day - if only the family had left more of it until then!

    This was so easy to make and came out of the oven looking exactly like the picture, (which is always a bonus, I find!) It tasted fantastic and didnt last very long in our house. Will pass the recipe on to my mum and will definitely make again!

    My dad adores Bakewell cakes but he prefers cherries to raspberries, would it be okay to use cherries instead? If so, glacé or normal ones? Replies would be much appreciated!

    Have made this twice, once with raspberries and the second time with summer fruits mixed berries. Lovely cake -- I did find that it wasn't very almondy though and I like the taste of amonds so I added a teaspoon of almond extract to boost it up a bit

    Very nice, went down a treat last night as dessert. I made double the mixture due to only having a larger tin so lots left but sure it will be gone by the end of today! Think I will add almond extract next time though.
