preparation
Cook fruit filling
Start preparing the strawberry cake from the tin by chopping the fruit. Put this in a pan with a bit of sugar and add the lemon juice. Stir on medium-high until the mixture has become quite thick. Let the jam cool down.
The usual white flour can be replaced with whole grain or other healthy alternatives!
Prepare the dough
In another bowl, you should mix together the flour, baking powder, vanilla and salt. Add the sugar, egg, butter and grated lemon zest. Mix it all together until the batter looks uniform.
You could use a healthier white sugar alternative! Consider muscovado or coconut sugar!
Conjure up the different layers of strawberry cake
You should use a suitable baking sheet to bake the dough. Grease this with butter so the cake doesn’t stick to it. Alternatively, you could line the mold with parchment paper. Separate 2/3 thirds of the dough and spread it evenly on the tray. Pour the finished fruit filling on top. With the help of a spatula you can smooth this layer. Then the rest of the dough goes on top of that! The top layer can be kneaded densely or artfully. We illustrate both variants.
To finish off the strawberry cake from the tin, sprinkle the slivered almonds on top. Cut the fresh strawberries into small slices and place them on top.
Bake the cake!
Before you bake the strawberry cake prepared in this way from the tin, you should preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Then leave the cake in for 30 minutes at the same temperature.
At the end, cool the cake and serve! We remind you again that in the text above the pictures we give tips on how to prepare the cake in a healthier way!
