Gluten Free Coconut Almond Strawberry Shortcakes Recipes

ALMOND FLOUR STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE CAKE WITH VANILLA BEAN CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 9 inch round pans and line the bottom with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, mix the coconut oil, sugar, eggs, vanilla and almond extract together until well combined. Add the almond milk and beat again until well incorporated.
• In a large separate bowl, whisk the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder and salt together. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. Mixture should be on the thicker side.
• Divide batter evenly between pans and spread out with a spatula to smooth the tops. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until cake is golden brown, no longer jiggly in the middle and a tester comes out clean.
• Let cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes then transfer to the fridge to finish cooling. Allow cake to cool in the fridge for at least an hour before removing from the pan and frosting.
• To make the frosting: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, milk and vanilla bean together until creamy and smooth. Divide frosting in half and spread over each cake. Add sliced strawberries on top of one cake, then place the other cake on top and garnish with fresh whole strawberries.
• Cake should be kept covered in the fridge for optimal freshness and will stay good for 4-5 days

ALMOND COCONUT STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES (GLUTEN- & GRAIN-FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Combine the almond and coconut flours, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the remaining ingredients in a small bowl, and add to the flour mixture. Combine well. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the batter onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving some room for the shortcakes to expand while cooking. You will get about 8. Bake for 11-14 minutes or until golden brown. (To avoid over-browning, check a few minutes early until you know how long they take in your oven.) Serve warm or at room temperature with desired toppings. Any leftovers may be wrapped and refrigerated for up to a week. The shortcakes freeze well, too.
