Wet ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut butter, melted but not hot
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup full fat coconut milk
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup cassava flour (or gluten-free 1-to-1 flour)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
Strawberry and rhubarb:
- 2 1/2 cups thinly sliced fresh rhubarb
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped coarsely
Streusel topping:
- 2/3 cup cassava flour (or gluten-free 1-to-1 flour)
- 2/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup melted coconut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 deg F and grease a 9 x 13” glass baking dish with coconut oil. Add wet ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly with a whisk.
- In a separate bowl, add dry ingredients and mix well. Add the dry ingredient mixture to the bowl of wet ingredients in 1/2 cup increments, mixing as you go.
- Pour the batter into the baking pan. Evenly distribute the rhubarb slices and strawberries across the top.
- In a clean mixing bowl, add all ingredients for streusel topping and mix well with a fork. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the strawberries and rhubarb.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the topping is lightly crisp and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool and enjoy!
Notes
Variations:
- Coconut sugar can be replaced with any granulated sugar.
- Cassava flour can be replaced with gluten-free 1-to-1 flour in equal amount.
- Replace the strawberry and rhubarb layer with other berries or fruits. We like plums, peaches, and blackberries!
- Coconut milk can be replaced with ½ cup milk and ½ cup yogurt or sour cream.
