Method

Step 1 of 3

Preheat oven to 190°C/170°C fan-forced. Grease a 20cm square cake pan. Line base and sides with baking paper, extending paper 2cm above edges of pan on all sides.

Step 2 of 3

Place ricotta, sugar, oil, egg and vanilla in a large bowl, then whisk until combined. Add almond meal, flour and baking powder, then whisk until just combined. Roughly chop half of the strawberries. Fold chopped strawberries through batter.

Step 3 of 3

Spoon batter into prepared pan. Smooth top. Thickly slice remaining strawberries and arrange on batter. Bake for 40 minutes or until cake is golden and top springs back when pressed lightly. Cool completely in pan. Cut into pieces. Serve.
