Notes
This recipe comes from “The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook” by Elana Amsterdam.
If you don’t have access to fresh fruit, you can use frozen blueberries and peaches. Thaw them before baking in the oven.
With a simple recipe like this, the quality of the ingredients has a big impact on the end result because you can taste every ingredient. In these cases, purchase Almond flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla that’s organic and all natural. Don’t use the more expensive spices for every recipe, just for those where you know the flavors will be really apparent.
