Ingredients
- 1 cup brown rice flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of real maple syrup
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups chopped strawberries
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 1 banana, sliced into rounds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Grease a 9 inch springform or tart pan with coconut oil.
- In a large bowl combine all the dry ingredients: flours, baking powder, soda and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients: vanilla, maple syrup, olive oil and eggs.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Do not over-mix. The batter will be a bit crumbly but you shouldn't see any dry bits. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
- Spoon the mixture into the pan and smooth out the top. Decorate the top with banana slices.
- Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes or until a fork inserted comes out clean. Check cake at around 25 minutes. If it is starting to brown on the top cover with tin foil so it doesn't burn.
- Remove from oven when done and set on a cooling rack for 20 to 30 minutes before slicing. Serve with coconut yogurt or coconut ice cream!
