Pressure Cooker Fresh Berry Almond Cake with Lemon Glaze
Spring has finally sprung in Kansas. Yay!!! I cannot tell you how excited I am to see leaves on trees and green grass. After the LONG, COLD winter it's nice to have the sun shining. I am anxious for gardens to start producing and flowers to start blooming. The tulips have tuliped and we're ready for peonies to come on soon.
I feel like Peonies scream Spring. That and all of the fresh produce that starts to appear at the farmers market and local grocers. I am looking forward to fresh berries as they start to come on. And looking forward to fresh berries made me think about this delicious fresh berry cake that you can make in your electric pressure cooker.
It's really nice, in Kansas, right now. But before long, summer will be upon us and it will be so hot I don't even want to think about turning on the oven, so my electric pressure cooker is an AWESOME way to make desserts in the heat of the summer.
Check this one out... I hope you like it. It's also very good with fresh blueberries, if you want to give it a bit of a twist. (Just toss them in a little flour so they don't sink to the bottom of the cake).
