Rhubarb and Strawberry Hazelnut Cake (gluten-free)

May 29, 2015 By Hana 2 Comments

Rhubarb and Strawberry hazelnut Cake

As promised here is another rhubarb recipe for you – Gluten Free Rhubarb and Strawberry Hazelnut Cake. Rhubarb is still in season this month and to make the most of this beautiful plant I’m combining it with strawberries to create this delicious cake. I’ve played a bit with the flavours and combined lots of wholefood ingredients to create a lovely gluten-free mix that works beautifully in this cake.

If you prefer you could make the topping entirely with rhubarb, but I think with just a few strawberries mixed in, it creates an even better combination as rhubarb and strawberries really do compliment each other.

I have adapted this cake from two different recipes; my Apple and Blueberry Cake and Rhubarb, Candied Hazelnut and Buckwheat Cake from my favourite baking book Wholefood Baking by Jude Blereau. The result is a beautifully delicious gluten-free cake full of flavour and uniqueness. Must try!

    So, 3 generations of one family here in the Franke household, including the grandparents who were visiting from Cornwall, all unanimously gave this recipe the big thumbs up! As always I was very happy to taste a new Nirvana Cakery creation and it was lovely to be able to share the joy with my parents as well as the little ones here. We all loved this super scrumptious cake! Txx
