DIRECTIONS:
You know I love using seasonal fresh produce,
and strawberries are in their prime season right
now. This cake comes together really quickly
and it’s all made in one bowl.Preheat your
oven to 350° and line an 8 inch cake pan with
parchment paper. Cream together the
margarine, oil, eggs, and sugar. Add in the
orange zest and the extracts. With the mixer
on low, add in your flours, baking powder and
salt until combined and then fold in your
strawberries. Pour the batter into the prepared
cake pan and top with slivered almonds. Bake
for 40 minutes until your knife inserted comes
out clean allowed to call and sprinkle with
powdered sugar to serve. Enjoy!
