    Gluten-Free #treslechescake (DF option) Last week Gluten-Free #treslechescake (DF option)

Last week I shared my favorite gluten-free sponge cake recipe, and here's another fun way to use it. Add an extra egg white to the batter and soak the cake with sweet milks (or coconut milks) for a gluten-free (and optionally dairy-free) riff on the beloved Latin-American sweet. 

I developed the gluteny version of this recipe during my years as a pastry chef at a Latin-American restaurant here in SF. I would bake the cake in a large hotel pan, cut out rounds to make individual cakes for plating, and promptly devour all the cake scraps. 

While I don't recommend having cake for lunch, I do recommend whipping up a tres leches cake for your next gathering. They're brilliant for parties because they can be made a day or two ahead and refrigerated until ready to serve. 

Top slices with whipped cream (or whipped coconut cream) and fresh berries or, more traditionally, a layer of cinnamon sifted over the top. Creamy, comforting deliciousness. 

The last shot is the coconut flour tres leches cake from #alternativebakerbook topped with lime-kissed mango. So fresh!

    As blueberries come into season here in California As blueberries come into season here in California, I've been dreaming about this gluten-free blueberry coffee cake. It's moist and tender, layered with jammy fruit and an addictively salty-sweet streusel topping. 

Oat flour, sorghum flour, and sweet rice flour build a moist and flavorful cake, and almond flour in the topping helps the streusel hold together. 

It would be an ideal addition to weekend brunch or potlucks, and it takes well to variations. I've made it with rhubarb instead of berries, for instance - so good!

Here are a few things readers have said about this cake:

"Better than any gluten-full coffee cake I ever had. This recipe is a keeper. THANK YOU!!" 

"So this is the best coffee cake I’ve ever had, GF or otherwise! Another genius recipe!"

"This was such a hit last night served as a dinner dessert. People were having seconds and thirds! It was absolutely delicious, fluffy and moist and flavorful with a crunch from the pecans on top." 

"This coffee cake is so good - a light, tender crumb and with a pleasant touch of lemon. If I didn’t know it was gluten free I wouldn’t even suspect so."

    Gluten-free sponge cake is so easy to make. This a Gluten-free sponge cake is so easy to make. This airy cake can be turned into #victoriaspongecake, tiramisu, tres leches, or layered with your favorite frosting and toppings. 

This version with whipped mascarpone, berry chia jam, and fresh berries was actually our wedding cake!

A trio of flours - millet, sweet rice, and oat - give the cake a mild, neutral flavor with a moist & springy crumb. 

The cake layers are naturally dairy-free and can be sweetened with maple syrup instead of sugar if you prefer.

    If you liked the gluten-free scones that I shared If you liked the gluten-free scones that I shared recently, you're going to love these gluten-free strawberry #shortcakes! 🍓

Tender almond flour biscuits (adapted from the scone recipe) are smothered with billows of whipped cream (shown here with culinayogurt for an easy DF option) and juicy strawberries. They're buttery, creamy, bright-tasting, and not too sweet.

Shortcakes make an ideal dessert for spring gatherings because the components can all be prepared ahead and assembled when you're ready to serve up dessert. 

Feel free to play around with different berries. Add other flavors to the biscuits (I especially love the lemon ginger variation from the scone recipe here). Or add a splash of liqueur to the fruit.
