Method

  • step 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.

  • step 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.

question

Can we use only almond flour or coconut flour to bake this? Could you kindly advise on the recipie? Thanks

GoodFoodTeam_

Hello, we have only tested this cake with a mixture of ground almonds and self-raising flour. We wouldn’t recommend coconut flour as it is very absorbent so the liquid and egg ratios would need altering. You would likely need to add xanthan gum as well for structure. A self-raising gluten-free flour…

question

Can you make this gluten free ?

GoodFoodTeam_

Hello, we have only tested this recipe with wheat flour but yes you could swap the self raising flour for a gluten-free self raising flour. The texture will be different - likely a bit dryer - but it should work fine. Thank you for your question - Best wishes, Good Food Team

Amazing foolproof (& I should know 😉) recipe. I cooked it til it was brown on top - 60 mins Easy & tastes really delicious! Great recipe

Just made this, I agree with everyone who comment that it that’s longer that the recipe tell you, I cooked mine for the stated time & increased it by another 10 minutes

question

Does this freeze?

GoodFoodTeam_

Hello, yes this cake can be frozen. Cool completely then wrap well to prevent freezer burn and freeze for up to three months. Defrost at room temperature. Thank you for your question - Best wishes, Good Food Team
