STEP BY STEP
Let’s make it.
- Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 20 cm square tin. Pat the prepared strawberries dry.
- Mix the almond meal, baking powder and salt. Separately whisk the eggs, yogurt, butter, sugar and vanilla.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients. Spread the batter in the tin and press the strawberry pieces lightly into the top without burying them completely.
- Bake for 30–38 minutes, until golden and a skewer inserted between the berries comes out without wet batter.
- Cool for 10 minutes in the tin, then lift onto a rack and cool fully. Cut into 12 servings.
Kitchen notes
- Very juicy berries can make wet patches; quarter them and pat dry before baking. The recipe contains a modest measured amount of sugar.
- The total time includes approximately 45–55 minutes for cooling before slicing. A larger or deeper bake may need longer.
