This gluten-free raspberry cake is a delightful and moist dessert that's perfect for those avoiding gluten. Made with a blend of white rice flour and ground almonds, it's packed with flavor and has a wonderful texture. The raspberry jam adds a fruity sweetness that complements the cake beautifully.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, white rice flour, and the finely ground almonds (2 cups + 1/3 cup). Set aside.
- In a large clean bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until they become frothy.
- Add the vinegar and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the beaten egg whites, being gentle to not deflate the mixture. Mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold the whipped butter into the egg whites and dry ingredient mixture until well combined.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
- Drop the raspberry jam by spoonfuls over the batter and then carefully spread it.
- Pour the remaining batter on top of the raspberry jam layer and smooth it out.
- Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once cool, optionally dust with extra powdered sugar before serving.
Tips:
- Ensure all your equipment is clean and free from gluten contamination.
- Use room temperature eggs for better incorporation.
- Sift the powdered sugar and rice flour to avoid any lumps in the batter.
- Grind the almonds finely but avoid turning them into almond butter.
- Fold the egg whites in gently to maintain the airiness of the batter.
- Let the cake cool completely before spreading the raspberry jam on top to prevent it from melting.
Enjoy your delicious gluten-free raspberry cake as a perfect dessert for any occasion. Its rich, nutty texture combined with the sweetness of the raspberries is sure to be a hit. Whether you're gluten-intolerant or just looking for a wonderful cake recipe, this treat won't disappoint.
