Recipe testing
I had so much fun testing the recipe for this Raspberry Almond Cake. I’m a big fan of quick and easy one layer cakes like my Lemon Crumb Cake, Blueberry Coffee Cake, Pear Cake and popular Pistachio Cake recipe. So I couldn’t wait to make a delicious almond cake filled with juicy raspberries.
I began recipe testing by using my Apple Cinnamon Cake as the base. It uses oil to create a really moist cake. I substituted a little flour for almond meal, added almond extract, fresh raspberries and flaked almonds.
The result? Surprisingly awful (see the first cake below). The balance of ingredients was off. The cake sank in the middle and it was dense and wet. The raspberries added way too much moisture and the almond meal had affected the structure
