Delicious! Made this today for a birthday cake celebration! It’s perfectly moist. And love the lemon zest flavor! I bet this would be good as a base for blueberries or raspberries, too.
Hi Sandra! It seems to be a problem with the Substack app. I have reached out to support to fix it. In the meantime, try using your browser or email me and I’ll connect you directly.
Annie! This retreat is so tempting! I'm going to think hard about it - I would absolutely love to join you. Plus, I just started learning Italian on DuoLingo! (it's a sign). Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day weekend!
Could you please write more on yogurt. So many kinds! What about people who are dairy free? Which substitutions do you like best? What about people with the APO4 gene?
Yes I will be writing about plant based milk products soon. If you are wondering if you could substitute plant based yogurt in this cake, I haven tried it. I have had good results with cashew yogurt in other baked goods. Happy to give it a run after I get home!
I have written about the ApoE4 gene elsewhere and should update that info here. Great idea!
The strawberry cake is awesome! I was lucky enough to be in town while Annie was home and was the recipient of a couple slices. It has enough flavor and sweet to make you think it is a treat but it also tastes and “feels” healthy.
Just made this cake. Delish. My husband declared, “This is a keeper” - his highest compliment.
That's wonderful Ruth! So happy you are both enjoying it!
This cake is delicious! I served it with some rhubarb sauce and it was a nice complement. Maybe rhubarb in the cake next time!
Love that idea! I have a huge rhubarb plant and I'm always looking of ways to use it.

Yes! Would be great with blueberries, and I've used the same recipe to make raspberry almond muffins. Glad you liked it!
Just made this cake and it was so flavorful! Didn't have quite enough strawberries so I added in a handful of blackberries. Delicious!
Oh I love how you did that! I am working on turning it into muffins:)
Love the recipe! Going out to buy strawberries now. ;)
I am making it again today, muffin-style. Hope you enjoy!
Hi Annie,
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. The strawberry cake is delicious! Came out beautifully! Can’t wait to make it again.
So happy to hear! I received lots of photos over the weekend--it was a mother's day hit!
I’m also interested in the April 2024 trip to Puglia (and a subscriber) but not able to connect through the link in Substack.

Hi Sandra, were you able to use the link?
Hi- interested in the Puglia trip but can’t connect to the link?
This recipe sounds AMAZING. Bookmarked and can't wait to try. I will be with you in spirit in Puglia and Happy Mother's Day!
Happy Mother’s Day!

That would be incredible! I am doing Duolingo too and loving it.

Thanks Robin! So happy you liked it. GF too!!xoxo
Amazing!! I love the tofu swap, I've done that in cooking classes, too. I just made the Strawberry cake as muffins--came out perfect at 40 minutes:)
Probably, but I haven't tried that. I grease the tin well with oil and use parchment paper liners.
