Mixed Berry Cake

We like to eat fresh berries, but during the off season fresh berries don't always taste great and they are expensive, so I buy frozen fruit. Thawed frozen fruit is soggy, so I like it better when it's heated up or cooked into a dish. This recipe is a good, quick and easy way to use frozen fruit. Baking with fruit provides sweetness and helps cut down on the sugar in a recipe.

2 tbs ghee
2 tbs avocado oil
1/4 cup applesauce
3 tbs coconut sugar
2 tbs maple syrup
1 egg
3/4 cup coconut milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup gluten free all purpose flour
1/4 cup buckwheat flour
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup mixed berries - I use frozen berries cinnamon sugar


Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Line an 8 x 8 baking dish with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray, like avocado oil.
In a large bowl, mix together the ghee, coconut oil, applesauce, coconut sugar and maple syrup. Add the egg, coconut milk, vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, combine the gluten free all purpose flour, buckwheat flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add to the liquid mixture.
Stir in the berries and pour into the pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the top.

Bake for 40 minutes.
