Gluten Free Strawberry Yogurt Cake with Lemon + Coconut Sugar Topping
Recipe adapted from Diane Morrisey's recipe
Topping:
2 tablespoons coconut sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon gluten free flour blend (I used Bob Redmill's 1 to 1 Blend)
Cake:
Zest from 1 lemon
1/2 cup light brown sugar, unpacked
1 1/2 cups gluten free flour blend (I used Bob Redmill's 1 to 1 Blend)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup olive oil
1 egg, room temperature
1/3 milk (or dairy alternative)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 heaping tablespoons plain greek yogurt
1 cup chopped strawberries
Preheat your oven to 375F. Line a 8x8 pan with parchment paper + set a side.
In a small bowl, mix together the topping ingredients - coconut sugar, butter, flour, + cinnamon. Set a side.
Using a large mixing bowl, add the lemon zest + sugar in a bowl. Combine with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. Add in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon + salt. Mix to combine.
In a separate bowl, mix together the wet ingredients - olive oil, egg, vanilla extract, lemon juice + milk. Add the wet ingredients to the dry + stir until just combined. Don't over mix the batter. Fold in the greek yogurt + the chopped strawberries.
Spread evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the topping over the top.
Bake for 25 minutes or until the center is fully cooked. Remove from the oven + remove from the baking pan. Let cool on a wire rack.
Enjoy!
