A light, flavour-packed cake featuring juicy autumn plums and almonds. Free from dairy and gluten, served with creamy coconut yoghurt.
Western Australia is blessed with amazing stone fruits, including juicy autumn plums.
In addition to beautiful, local fruit, this cake is made with almond and buckwheat flour, lending to a rich, nutty flavour throughout.
We served it with creamy coconut yoghurt from Perth-local Cocome for that final, moreish touch.
