Method

  1. Macerate the chopped strawberries with 2 tsp sugar and a little lemon juice.
  2. Separate the yolks from the whites, beat the yolks with 2 tbsp sugar, add the mascarpone and beat.
  3. Mash the strawberries and strain off the liquid (we used it to make a fruit juice), then add the strawberries to the previous mixture and mix well
  4. Whisk the whites to stiff peaks and fold them in. Add the 4 tbsp oat flour and the baking powder too.
  5. Pour the mixture into a microwave-safe dish and microwave for 5 minutes. Leave it for another 5 in the closed microwave.
  6. Let it cool, first on the worktop and then in the fridge.
  7. After 1 h, cut it into pieces and coat with chocolate melted in the microwave with a little coconut oil, in 30-second bursts, letting it cool slightly before pouring it over the cake.
  8. Keep in the fridge.
