Gluten Free Almond Poppy Seed Teacake

What is a teacake you ask? A teacake is a low cake, never frosted and is sturdy enough to pick up and eat with your hands. Traditionally, it is made in a loaf pan, but you may dress it up a bit by making it in a bundt pan. It is served with tea, but of course, you can eat this gluten free cake with your beverage of choice. You must like garbanzo bean flour to enjoy this recipe as is, or use Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Baking Flour. Bean flour has a unique taste, all its own, and is not for everyone. If you like The Grainless Baker Graham Crackers you’ll enjoy this one without any substitutions! You may also wish to consider using vanilla extract instead of almond and adding lots of spices (cinnamon, cloves, etc.) to hide the bean taste. This cake is very moist! I hope you enjoy this gluten free cake! Continue reading “Gluten Free Almond Poppy Seed Teacake”
