For the Cake:

  • 4 apricots chopped
  • 3/4 cup strawberries chopped
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons granulated monk fruit sweetener or regular sugar/coconut sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup applesauce or 1 egg
  • 1 stick plant-based butter or regular butter, or 1/2 cup oil
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

For the Topping:

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut shreds
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar optional

Instructions
 

  • To bake this scrumptious cake, preheat your oven to 350°F. Then, prepare a 9-inch springform pan or round cake pan by greasing it with oil or butter, and optionally lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Wash and chop your strawberries and apricots, and set them aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients, and in a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and mix until just combined.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared pan, top with the chopped fruit, coconut flakes, and brown sugar, then bake for 40-50 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let it cool, slice, and indulge! Any leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to one week. Enjoy every delicious bite! 🍓🍰
