Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F with a rack in the middle and a rack in the upper third of the oven. Grease a round 9-inch springform pan or cake pan and dust with almond flour.
-
Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond meal, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
-
In another bowl, combine the beaten eggs, maple syrup or honey, olive oil, and the zest of your orange. Use a whisk to mix well.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry. Stir just until there are a few clumps remaining, then pour the mixture into your prepared 9-inch pan.
-
Combine the strawberries and rhubarb on your prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with honey and mix well. Arrange the mixture in an even layer on the sheet.
-
Place the cake on the middle rack and the strawberry-rhubarb mixture on the upper rack. Bake for about 40 minutes, until the cake is golden brown and the center is firm to the touch.
-
Toss the strawberry-rhubarb mixture every 15 minutes or so, and keep an eye on it in the last 10 minutes of baking.
-
Place the cake on a wire rack to cool. Slice the orange in half and squeeze the juice of half the orange over the strawberry-rhubarb mixture. Stir to combine.
-
Once the cake has cooled for ten minutes, you can release it from the springform pan by popping off the side piece.
-
Use a large spoon to top the cake with the roasted strawberry-rhubarb mixture and all of its juices.
-
Slice and serve.
