Not only does this cake taste great, but it is also a great source of vitamin E, which is effective as an antioxidant and protects our cells from free radicals. The iron content is also impressive. This trace element is needed for blood formation and oxygen transport in the body.

If you don't like the taste of buckwheat flour or are not gluten intolerant, you can always use another whole-wheat flour instead. The almonds can easily be replaced with other ground nuts. Instead of puffed quinoa, the cake also tastes wonderful with puffed amaranth. There are almost no limits to the variations of this recipe!
