Equipment

  • 2 large bowls
  • 1 small bowl

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

For the whipped cream:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

For the strawberries

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit and grease a 6-inch cake pan.
  • Beat together the eggs and sugar with a hand or stand mixer on high speed until pale and thick, about 5 minutes.
  • Add in the almond flour and baking powder. Beat for another 30 seconds to one minute, until batter is just combined.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared cake pan. Bake the cake 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted down the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Remove cake from the pan and transfer it to a wire cooling rack to cool. While the cake cools, add the sliced strawberries and a tablespoon of sugar to a bowl, and stir until the strawberries are coated in sugar. Set the strawberries aside while you make the whipped cream.
  • Pour the heavy whipping cream into a large bowl and use a hand or stand mixer to beat the cream until it’s super light and fluffy and stiff peaks have formed (about 5 minutes).
  • Once the cake has completely cooled, top it with the homemade whipped cream then the strawberries. This cake is best served immediately!
