My absolute favorite is the coconut cornmeal cake that impresses the shit out of everyone when you go balls to the wall with the whipped coconut cream and fresh berries, but is just as tasty eaten out of hand on the way out the door to work . Can't wait to try this almond-poppy. I can see claiming this one as my own, too! Y'all are magick -- Love the podcast and the Broiler Room!

Ok i was going to be annoying and ask if I could sub cornmeal for almond meal cause I don’t have almond meal at home and I love me a cornmeal cake!!! Thoughts?

i love a corn cake too. if you do a finer grind like corn flour it should be good. if you're doing a coarser grind, do 1/2 cup cornmeal and the remaining 1/4 cup ap flour

Hi Elizabeth, I don't have enough experience with using only almond meal in a recipe....Maybe? It's such a simple recipe, I'd certainly try it!

I'm a paid subscriber, but I'm so fucking stupid I can't find the paid content. Salad Boot Camp, for example. Where the fuck is it?

I didn’t have almond extract, almond flour, or poppyseeds, but I had blueberries, and homemade blueberry syrup. Used the syrup to make a glaze and folded in the blueberries. Thanks for the recipe maybe I will follow the directions next time. Because of you I had my cake and ate it too. Looks delicious. Grandma doesn’t know I took her bundt pan ope!😂

Allergic to nuts… any ideas for a swap? Never used almond flour (not trying to die) but if I just used all AP flour is it 1:1 ratio? (:

yup, just sub ap flour 1:1 and add an extra tablespoon of oil to the recipe. won't be a problem at all
