Step 3. Add in the oil, baking powder, eggs, sugar, almond meal, coconut and cardamom then blitz for 10 seconds or until well combined.

Step 4. Pour the batter into a prepared cake tin and bake for 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool int the tin then remove, slice and serve with yoghurt or cream.
