There is something about nuts that goes well in dessert. A cake filled or topped with nuts is a cake with extra flavour, texture, and nutrition.
Macadamia nuts, almonds, walnuts, pecans, and cashews are super versatile and can be worked into a recipe either as an integrated part of the cake itself, used as decoration, or even to make the frosting.
Here is a list of 15 OGP recipes for the nuttiest plant-based cakes around.
