Take the classic pie combo to the next level with this Strawberry Rhubarb Coffee Cake! Made with coconut flour and a few other simple ingredients, it’s the perfect nourishing summer dessert!
Coming in hot with another dessert recipe today! No this is not a brownie, nor a blondie (we’ve been blowing up the blog with those lol) but a cake recipe because it was time for a change. And nope, it’s not a flourless recipe because I had coconut flour that needed to be used up so here we are.
This recipe was influenced by my dad’s favorite pie and the greatest pie flavor (in my opinion)of all……STRAWBERRY RHUBARB PIE! Does anyone know what rhubarb is good for besides pie? I honestly have no clue, but what I do know that it is a critical part of this pie!
For this coconut flour cake, I based it off of one of my Lemon Cranberry Cake recipe. If you are scared to bake with coconut flour, don’t be! It’s different from other flours (please don’t sub coconut flour one for one with another flour it will be a disaster lol) because it’s highly absorbent. That is why I added 3 eggs and a cup of Pacific Food‘s Cashew Vanilla Unsweetened Non-Dairy Beverage!
