Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • salt
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
For the crumb topping, mix three quarters of a cup of flour, a pinch of salt, a quarter cup each of granulated and light brown sugar and a teaspoon of cinnamon.
Making the crumb topping
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 113 g unsalted butter
Mash in a stick of soft unsalted butter, squeeze together by hand and break into crumbles; refrigerate.
  • ¾ lb unsalted butter
  • 2 cup confectioners sugar
Whisk three quarters of a pound of soft butter with two cups of confectioners sugar and three teaspoons of vanilla until fluffy.
  • 3 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 10 whole strawberries
Hull and dice ten rinsed strawberries small.
Add three room-temperature eggs to the butter mixture.
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 2¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • salt
  • 1 lemon lemon zest
Whisk together two and a quarter cups of flour, a cup of almond flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, half a teaspoon of baking soda, a pinch of salt and the zest of a lemon.
  • ½ cup plain yogurt
Add half a cup of plain yogurt, then the flour mixture a little at a time, reserving about three quarters of a cup of it to toss the strawberries in.
Fold in the floured strawberries with a spatula so they are not crushed.
  • butter
Grease a 9 or 10 inch round springform with butter from the wrappers; fill it no more than three quarters full and spread the batter.
Greasing the pan and how full to fill it
Sprinkle all the crumb topping over the cake; put the remaining batter, without topping, into a little cupcake tin (six here).
Topping and the cupcakes
Bake on the centre rack at 350F, the cake 55 minutes to an hour, until a toothpick in the centre comes out clean or with a few crumbs; the cupcakes 20 to 22 minutes, after the cake if there is only one oven.
  • freshly sliced strawberries
Run a knife around the edge and cool completely in the pan; transfer to a platter and serve with sliced strawberries, ice cream or whipped cream.
