Ingredients
  

Almond cake
  • 30 g flax seeds + 100 ml of water
  • 600 g semi-white flour or all purpouse flour
  • 125 g almond meal
  • 20 g baking powder
  • 120 g coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 7.5 dl almond milk or any other plant-based milk
  • 60 g rice syrup or agave or maple
  • 40 g coconut oil
Cream
  • 500 g frozen cherries
  • 30 ml water
  • 30 g rice syrup
  • 30 g corn starch 40 ml water
  • 300 g vegan whipped cream

Method
 

Almond cake
  1. Mix flax seeds with water and let soak for 10 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients (flour, ground almonds, baking powder and coconut sugar).
  3. In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients (almond milk, vanilla extract, rice syrup, coconut oil and pre-soaked flaxseed).
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix well with a hand mixer.
  5. Divide the batter evenly into three baking trays with a diameter of 25 cm and bake for 25 minutes at 180°C. (If you only have one baking tray, you can bake one cake first, then the second and third.)
  6. Allow the cakes to cool on the cooling rack.
Cream
  1. Put cherries in a pot and let them thaw.
  2. Add water and syrup to the cherries and bring to a boil.
  3. When it starts boiling, slowly stir in the mixture of corn starch and water and cook for 3 minutes, stirring several times in between, then let the filling cool down a bit.
Cake
  1. If almond cakes are rounded at the top, cut off the top to make them flat.
  2. Take one almond cake, place it on a flat surface, moisten with a few tablespoons (about 7 tablespoons) of almond milk, coat with half of the cherry filling, and spread half of the whipped cream on the filling.
  3. Cover with another cake and repeat the process.
  4. Cover the cake with chocolate if desired, and spread whipped cream on the edges.
  5. Decorate it as you wish.
  6. Put the cake in the fridge overnight so that the layers combine nicely.
