Blueberry & Coriander Cake with Almond Crust

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Blueberry & Coriander Cake with Almond Crust
Baking Cake Coriander Seeds Wholemeal flour

by Isabella Palmer September 10, 2024

With a moist, tender crumb and addictive salty-sweet crunchy crust, Isabella Palmer's blueberry cake is perfect plain with a cup of tea or as a pudding with runny cream. Hat-tip to Nicola Lamb for explaining in her Kitchen Projects substack how coriander seeds contain a large amount of linalool, the compound often used to synthesise blueberry flavour. So coriander seeds help blueberries taste even more of blueberry!

Isabella likes baking this in a 20cm tin, which makes an appealingly tall cake - but does mean a long bake. If using a wider tin, reduce the oven time.

Makes 1 Cakes

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Coriander Seeds
  • 250g Flanders Wheat Flour or other wholemeal flour
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 100g Brown Sugar
  • 70g Caster Sugar
  • 100g Plain Natural Yoghurt
  • 100g Olive Oil
  • 3 Eggs
  • 250g Blueberries (frozen is fine)
  • 25g Flaked Almonds
  • 2 tbsp Demerara Sugar
  • Another Pinch of Salt

Method

  1. Grease a 20cm circular cake tin and preheat the oven to 180C (160C fan).
  2. In a mortar and pestle, bash up the coriander seeds as finely as you can muster the effort for (a little rough is fine), then whisk them together with the flour, baking powder, sugars, and a pinch of salt in a large mixing bowl.
  3. In a measuring jug, beat together the eggs, yoghurt, and olive oil, then pour into the dry ingredients.
  4. Stir with a wooden spoon until just combined, then stir in the blueberries. Tip the mix into your prepared cake tin, being sure to scrape out the bowl, and scatter over the flaked almonds.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the 2tbsp of demerara sugar with the final pinch of salt, and then sprinkle this all over the cake, covering the almonds.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for at least 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted right into the centre of the cake comes out clean of batter (there might be blueberry juice on it; this is fine). Allow to cool until it is just-warm before eating.
  7. This cake keeps well for several days in a tin, and is possibly even more enjoyable after it has settled into itself.

Malt Chocolate Chip Cookies

Wholegrain Malted Chocolate Chip Cookies

November 20, 2025

This recipe from Anna Warden makes for a cookie that is crunchy on the outside, and chewy in the middle - to our mind the best combination. The malted wheat flour and coffee create a gorgeous depth of flavour and a moreish caramelly base which pairs perfectly with dark chocolate and sea salt. These cookies will keep in the freezer (unbaked) for a couple of weeks, and so are the perfect thing to have to hand for times you want a cookie or for when you might just need a cookie.
