Preparation

  1. Serving size:
    3.17 oz (calculated)
    Notes: 1 slice of a round baking pan with a diameter of about 28 cm or 11 in
  2. Temperature: 347 °F (preheated)

    The base

  1. Mix the butter and add the xylitol until it dissolves and the butter lightens in color, about 3 to 5 minutes. If you're using powdered Xylitol, this won't take as long.
  2. Now add the egg, mix, then the almond flour.
  3. You will get a crumbly dough, which you then knead with your hands to form a ball.
  4. For best results, wrap in cling film and chill for at least 2 hours. Else the dough might be sticky and hard to roll out.
  5. The streusel

  6. Mix the butter and the xylitol until the butter lightens in color.
  7. Combine the dry ingredients and add mix them with the butter.
  8. This dough is crumbly, too. Knead it to a ball, wrap in cling film and chill.
  9. The filling

  10. First dissolve the butter with the milk in a pot.
  11. Once it comes to a boil, add the dry ingredients.
  12. Bring to a boil once more and immediately remove from the heat.
  13. Mix well and let cool until it is luke-warm.
  14. Separate 4 eggs. Whip the egg-whites until stiff.
  15. Add the egg yolks to the luke-warm poppy seeds and mix.
  16. Now fold in the egg whites. Add 1/3, fold in, then the next third, working more gently. When adding the last third, the mix should be quite fluffy already. Fold in the remaining egg white as gently as possible to make the mix even fluffier.
  17. Baking

  18. Roll out the dough for the base, so that it is a bit bigger than your baking tin.
  19. Line your tin with baking paper and grease the sides.
  20. Transfer the rolled out dough to the tin and press the overlap on the sides of the tin. Even it out, so that you get a rim of a bit more than 1 cm or 1/2 in.
  21. Add the poppy seed mix.
  22. Bake for about 10 minutes.
  23. Then remove from the oven and crumble the streusel dough over the cake.
  24. Bake for another 20 minutes or until done.
  25. Let cool and enjoy!
  26. Meal-prep tip

  27. You can also freeze portions. Microwave one slice for about 2 minutes at 600 watt and you've got a yummy dessert.
