Ingredients

Gluten Free Coffee Cake

  • 3 tablespoons butter or ghee , melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup plain or vanilla yogurt (dairy-free or regular will work)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fine almond flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca starch
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup Orchard Choice® or Sun-Maid® California Dried Figs chopped

Fig Almond Crumble

  • 1/4 cup tapioca starch
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • Sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons butter or ghee , melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and like an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • In large bowl, whisk together the butter, eggs, coconut sugar, maple syrup, yogurt, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Stir in the remaining dry ingredients for the cake until a smooth batter forms.
  • Gently fold the chopped figs into the batter, setting aside a few to top the cake with (optional).
  • Pour the batter into the baking dish, then set aside while you prepare the crumble.
  • To make the crumble, whisk the tapioca starch, coconut flour, coconut sugar, slivered almonds, cinnamon, and sea salt together in a bowl with a fork, then use the fork to whisk in the maple syrup and melted butter.
  • Sprinkle the crumble over the top of the cake, then top with a few of the figs set aside (optional).
  • Bake for 28-30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean or with a dry crumb. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool until just slightly warm before slicing.
