In reply to Terri. I love that you both are enjoying my recipes. Unfortunately, changing a liquid ingredient would require a new recipe. Sorry to disappoint I don't have a straight forward answer.

Hi there,
Mum and I have just started following you and we love your recipes! We tried one of your almond cakes recently and it was to die for!
I’m on a modified paleo/keto diet for health reasons and was wondering whether I could skip the honey in this recipe and instead perhaps use frozen berries or top up on the oil to compensate for the decreased liquid?
Thank you! Really looking forward to trying this!

I followed the recipe almost exactly except I did not add the raspberries but chopped walnuts instead. .
It came out perfect! I am Greek decent and we make many desserts adding syrups to ‘out of the oven’ cakes…
I was looking for a gluten free and no-sugar-added cake to have available at time, to substitute for ‘Karidopita’ the Greek Honey cake.
Thank you!

i don’t usually leave comments (in fact, this may be my first?) but this cake is so good! i made it for passover and everyone loved it, i got requests to make it again next year, and now the day after everyone is still talking about it. i don’t like pistachios so i swapped with hazelnuts but other than that followed it exactly and it came out wonderful! will definitely be bookmarking this for future passover bakes. i also made another cake from this blog for last year’s seder and it was also exceptional; i believe it was the almond flour cake with roasted strawberries.

In reply to Deb. Hi'm sorry this one didn't work well for you. You packed two cups for almond flour? How many eggs did you use?

Large eggs, and is it 8 ounces total for flour or per cup. I’ve obviously done something wrong. I packed the measuring cup. Batter very thin and at 45 minutes the center is like jelly. I’m a savory cook and am baking challenged!

In reply to Gabrielle. Hi! I think frozen berries will work well, just haven’t tried to be sure! I would add them when they’re frozen (not thawed). Your cake might need a few extra minutes in the oven. My number one tip with this cake is to be sure you’re packing the almond flour into the measuring cup like you would with brown sugar.

This is one of the most delicious cakes I have ever baked — it’s quickly become a family favourite!
