Ingredients

  • 400g raw cashew nuts, ground
  • 300g mashed potato, cooled
  • 300g sugar
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • 100g butter, melted
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and grease a round cake tin.
  2. 2Grind the raw cashews finely, keeping some texture rather than a completely smooth paste.
  3. 3Beat the eggs with the sugar until pale and fluffy.
  4. 4Fold in the ground cashews, mashed potato, melted butter, lemon zest, baking powder and cinnamon until smooth and well combined.
  5. 5Pour the batter into the prepared tin and smooth the top.
  6. 6Bake for 50-60 minutes until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is deep golden brown.
  7. 7Cool completely in the tin before turning out, as the cake is delicate while warm.
  8. 8Slice and serve at room temperature.
