This is the second instalment and guest post from blogger Indy Power from the The Little Green Spoon, a gorgeous sticky almond cake – another must try recipe that’s also dairy and gluten free. Yum!
2 Cups of Ground Almonds
1 Cup of Coconut Oil, Melted
1/2 Cup of Agave
3 Eggs
1 Teaspoon of Baking Powder
3/4 Cups of Polenta
For the topping:
1 Cup of Flaked Almonds
1/2 Cup of Agave
1/2 Cup of Water
Whisk the eggs, agave and melted coconut oil together.
In a separate bowl, combine the polenta, ground almonds and baking powder. Then pour into the egg mixture and mix until throughly combined.
Pour the mixture into a baking tin lined with parchment paper and bake at 180’C for 20-25 minutes, test it until a knife comes out clean.
Take it out and let it cool on a wire rack.
Pop the almond flakes in a pan on medium heat and cook until lightly browned, then set aside. Then simply add the agave and water to a pan on medium heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until its thickened a little.
If you’re having it straight away then pour the syrup over the top of the cake while it’s still warm and sprinkle with the toasted almonds. Slice it and pop a scoop of nobó right on top! If you’re not having it right away then make the toppings just before serving so the syrup is nice and hot.
