28 g (2 tablespoons) packed brown sugar

255 g (¾ cup) honey, divided

This stunning Flourless Rhubarb-Almond Upside-Down Cake is naturally gluten-free, bursting with bright rhubarb flavor, and crowned with a glossy nutty topping — a total showstopper perfect for your social feeds and special gatherings!

Ingredients:

57 g (¼ cup) butter

35 g (¼ cup) toasted almonds, finely chopped

280 g (2 cups) rhubarb, sliced 1.5 cm (½-inch) thick (fresh or frozen, thawed and drained)

200 g (1 cup) granulated sugar, divided

150 g (1½ cups) almond flour

5 g (1 teaspoon) baking powder

1.5 g (¼ teaspoon) salt

4 large eggs, separated

2.5 ml (½ teaspoon) almond extract

2.5 ml (½ teaspoon) vanilla extract

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Place the butter in a 23 cm (9-inch) round cake pan and place it in the oven for about 5 minutes until fully melted. Remove the pan from the oven.

Sprinkle the finely chopped toasted almonds evenly over the melted butter. Arrange the sliced rhubarb in a single, decorative layer over the almonds. Evenly sprinkle 100 g (½ cup) of the sugar over the rhubarb.

In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks with 50 g (¼ cup) of the sugar, almond extract, and vanilla extract on high speed for about 2 minutes, until the mixture is light and thickened. Stir in the almond flour mixture.

Thoroughly clean and dry the mixer beaters. In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 50 g (¼ cup) of sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk and flour mixture in four additions, being careful not to deflate the batter.

Spoon the batter over the rhubarb and almond layer in the cake pan, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula.

Bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and springs back when lightly touched.

Cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges to loosen, then carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate. Replace any rhubarb pieces that may stick to the pan.

Serve the cake warm or at room temperature for the best flavor.
