Ingredients in strawberry almond cake bars

I wouldn’t suggest changing anything in this recipe, keep the ingredients and measurements the same and you won’t be disappointed.

This recipe calls for a combination of almond and all-purpose flour.

Use baking powder and salt.

Use 1 medium-sized egg for best results.

Use granulated sugar for best results.

You can use any milk you prefer for this recipe.

Use unsalted regular or dairy-free butter for best results. I haven't tried using oil instead.

You will need about a cup of strawberries, cut in half and a couple of tablespoons of almond flakes.
