STRAWBERRY SHEET CAKE

Paid collaboration with Virtasalmen Viljatuote. This delicious summery strawberry sheet cake is gluten-free and vegan. It’s easy to make in one bowl and takes less than 30 minutes!

Gluten-free sheet cake

Viljatuote gluten-free flours are my go to flours when baking gluten-free. Viljatuote flour mixes contain a variety of non gmo flours and also psyllium for better baking results. They have a flour mix for every baking occasion: for cakes, cookies, pancakes, buns, bread.

I use Viljatuote all-purpose flour mix the most but I also love the flour mix I used in this cake: Viljatuote gluten-free oat flour mix. It gives a lovely oat flavor to the cake, which is amazing with fresh strawberries. I also added Viljatuote rice flour for a lighter consistency.

If you live in Europe, you can buy these high-quality gluten-free flours from Viljatuote online store.

Vegan cake

This cake is super easy to make vegan. No need for eggs, you can use plant-based yogurt instead to give that moist cake crumb. I also add chopped fresh strawberries to the cake to make it extra scrumptious.

I bake the cake in a large baking sheet covered with parchment paper. The cake isn’t quite the size of the whole baking sheet, but if you want to make a larger (whole oven baking sheet size) cake, the cake is going to be thinner and requires less baking time. I recommend checking the cake after 10-15 minutes.

This cute summer cake is like a strawberry and cream sheet cake. You can also bake two cakes to make a two layer cake with strawberry cream in the middle and top 🙂
