Time 1h

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted, plus room-temperature butter for pan
1 1/2 cups almond flour (spooned and leveled)
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons potato starch (spooned and leveled)
1 1/4 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
3 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup finely grated zucchini (from 1 medium zucchini), squeezed of excess liquid
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Cake:Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch round, 2-inch deep cake pan. Line bottom with parchment round; butter paper. In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, potato starch, baking powder, and salt.
  • Set a large heatproof bowl over (not in) a pot with 1 inch barely simmering water. Add eggs and whisk until foamy, about 1 minute. Whisk in brown sugar and continue to whisk until mixture is fluffy and sugar is dissolved, 3 minutes. Remove bowl from pot and, using a mixer, whisk on high until mixture is pale, thick, and cool to touch, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • With a flexible spatula, gently fold in melted butter, flour mixture, vanilla, and zucchini. Pour into pan and bake, rotating pan halfway through, until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cake cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Invert onto a serving platter.
  • Frosting:With mixer, beat together butter, vanilla, and cream cheese on medium-high until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar and beat until combined. Spread on top of cake. (Cake can be refrigerated, covered, up to 2 days.)

Gluten-Free Snack Cake image

Provided by Sharski

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup dates, chopped
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter or 3/4 cup margarine
1 (5 1/8 ounce) package vanilla pudding mix
3 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour (I like Tom Sawyer brand)

0.5 (11 1/2 ounce) package chocolate chips

Tips:

  • Use fresh zucchini. Fresh zucchini has a higher water content, which makes for a moist cake. If using frozen zucchini, thaw it completely and drain off any excess water before using.
  • Grate the zucchini finely. This will help it blend into the cake batter more easily and prevent it from becoming too chunky.
  • Use a combination of gluten-free flours. This will help to create a light and fluffy cake. Some good options include almond flour, coconut flour, and tapioca flour.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This gluten-free zucchini snack cake is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite dessert. It's perfect for any occasion, and it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a gluten-free dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
