easy recipe – Clares Cauldron

Well we have a Platinum Jubilee coming up from the 2nd of July of our Beloved Queen

So I thought I best get an Iconic Bake in before we all start to bake up a storm for out street parties and afternoon teas in celebration

To mark the event … I decided on nothing to whacky but something traditional with a twist

So I’ve chosen a Bakewell Tart and taken out the equation of pastry 🙊

I know for some that will just make your heart sing 😂

But we do want to spend time celebrating and not fussing over elaborate decorated cakes ( But you can if you want ) 😂😂

So we have all the flavour of almonds and lovely juice raspberries just waiting to be savoured !!! And even though this looks a rustic bake I want to tell you I would be more than happy to be served this at an afternoon tea

And Im sure Liz would be happy with this fayre too ……

We all know its her Majesty that decrees that its jam before cream on a scone , so if she delights in scones she will delight in a pastry-less Bakewell Cake 😍

So without further ado…. lets bake because you wont believe how simple this is

Print

The Iconic Almond Tart less the Pastry made into a easy but gorgeous moist fruity cake

20 cm , 8in Spring Form Cake is required

Ingredients

140g ground almond
140g dairy free block butter butter, softened to room temperature
140g caster sugar
140g Gluten Free Plain Flour blend ( If not using your own I recommend Doves Farm Freee UK or Pilsbury US )
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Xathan Gum
6 tbsp chia seeds or 3 tbsp Golden Milled Flax Seed
6 tbsp of luke warm tap water
1 tsp vanilla extract
250g Fresh Raspberries NOT FROZEN
2 tbsp flaked almond
icing sugar, to serve

Directions

Pre heat your oven to 180C/160C fan/320 F
In a small bowl , add the water to the chia seeds or flax and set aside until they become swollen and gloopy ……about 10 minutes
Grease and fully line a 20 cm / 8in spring formed cake tin
Place the ground almonds, dairy free butter, sugar, gluten free flour, baking powder and xanthan gum , chia seed gloop and vanilla extract in a food processor and blitz until well combined.

Spread half the mix over the cake tin and smooth over the top you may want to press it in with your hands
Scatter the raspberries over the top of the batter
Spoon in blobs the remaining cake mixture on top and roughly spread – you might find this easier to do with your fingers.
Scatter with flaked almonds

Bake for 50 mins until golden.
Cool in tin , remove from the tin and dust with icing sugar to serve.
Enjoy

Well I’m not going to waffle any longer than necessary !!

I know you all hate it and we just want too see cake and lick the screen

If you don’t make this cake I would tend to think you may be a tad wreck less 😂

At a missed opportunity !!

So I will give you some more pictures so you rush out to get the ingredients even if a lot of you may have theses in already !!!
