Is there anything one could use to replace the almond flour in this recipe?
ReplyDeleteIt will probably change the texture a bit since almond flour doesn't absorb as much liquid, but you can use additional whole wheat or oat flour - I would try only using 2 tablespoons of flour of choice in place of the 1/4 cup almond meal. Hope this helps :)
DeletePerfect, thanks for the reply. I'm definitely going to try this! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat cake ! It looks really avesome ! Maybe someday I will bake it ... I'm not baking very often, but your cake is encouraging ...
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I hope you do one day!
DeleteThe recipe calls for 1 whole egg, but the method has egg whites listed. What should be used?
ReplyDeleteOh good catch! It is one whole egg. I will fix that in the "method" section now. Thank you for pointing that out :)
DeleteThis looks absolutely delicious, I am definitely trying this! But are you supposed to eat it warm or let it set in the fridge?
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's actually delicious either way but I liked it warm :)
DeleteMade this tonight. I used oat bran instead of oat flour and was worried about the outcome. But it is super delicious! Nice texture! So glad I doubled the recipe and have one for the freezer. Thanks for sharing this winner!!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear that replacement worked! I may have to try that next time - I love to bake with oat bran. And you're very welcome. So glad it was enjoyed (& doubled) :)
DeleteHi Nicolette, do you have any suggestions to replace the wheat or oat flour that would be gluten free?
ReplyDeleteThank you
I actually use a gluten-free oat flour. If you can't find that, I recommend using almond meal flour and coconut flour at a 1:1 ratio to replace the oat flour cup for cup. Does this make sense??
DeleteDon't you use any baking powder or baking soda?
ReplyDeleteThanks
Take out all the ingredients required for the recipe of your choice, and wait until they are at room temperature. Mango cake delivery
