Baking in the air fryer

  • Bake the cake base in the air fryer at 160 °C for 20 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Avoid opening the air fryer for the first 15 minutes, and loosely cover the cake with foil for the last few minutes if the surface gets too dark. Let the base cool completely in the pan.

Strawberry mousse

  • Soak 4 blad gelatine in cold water for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, blend 400 g strawberries with 100 g powdered sugar and 1 tbsp lemon juice into a smooth purée.

  • Heat about a third of the strawberry purée in a small saucepan until it is warm but not boiling. Squeeze the water out of the gelatine and stir it into the warm purée until completely dissolved. Mix with the rest of the purée and let it cool to room temperature.

  • Whip 2.5 dl heavy cream to soft peaks, and gently fold it into the cooled strawberry purée until the mousse is smooth and airy.

Assembly and decoration

  • Remove the completely cooled cake base from the pan and place it on a serving plate. Set a cake ring or the clean springform collar around the base.

  • Spread the strawberry mousse evenly over the base, and refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, until the mousse has set.

Notes

Tips for a perfect result:
Let the cake base cool completely before spreading on the mousse, otherwise it will melt. If you want a firmer mousse that is easier to slice, you can use an extra sheet of gelatine. The cake base is made with almond flour and cornstarch and is therefore gluten-free. Use a gluten-free baking powder to be completely sure.
Variation:
Swap the strawberries for raspberries or a mix of summer berries for a different but equally fresh flavour.
Serving:
Serve well chilled with a dollop of lightly whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Portion size:
The recipe makes 4 generous portions, but the cake can easily be cut into 8 smaller pieces. If you have a smaller air fryer, check that your springform pan (18 cm) fits in the basket.
