Gluten-free Fruit Torte Recipe – Oma's glutenfreier Obstkuchen Rezept

Yes, my fruit torte recipe, aka Obsttorte, is so delicious. With fresh berries, it's one of those great fruit dessert recipes to enjoy in the summer.

I've used various mixes of berries, such as raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and/or blueberries.

Ingredients:

• 2 large eggs, separated
• pinch salt
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1½ cups ground almonds
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 pound fresh strawberries (or mixed berries)
• ½ teaspoon Knox unflavored gelatin
• 3 ounces (90 ml) unsweetened apple juice, divided

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Beat egg whites with pinch of salt until stiff.
3. Stir in honey.
4. Fold in stirred egg yolks.
5. Mix ground almonds and cornstarch together. Add to egg white mixture and mix gently.
6. Put batter into greased 8-inch springform pan. Bake 20 minutes or till done.
7. Let cake cool. Remove from pan. Place on cake plate. Replace outer ring of springform pan around cake.
8. Place berries on cake (if large, cut in half).
9. Pour 1 tablespoon of the cold apple juice into a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin evenly over it and let stand for 5 minutes.
10. Heat the remaining apple juice until hot but not boiling. Stir it into the softened gelatin until completely dissolved.
11. Let cool, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened but still pourable.
12. Spoon over the fruit on the completely cooled cake. Refrigerate until the glaze is set, allowing about 1 hour, then carefully remove the springform ring.
