1 Preheat the oven to 180°C. 2 Squeeze the juice from the lemon. 3 In a small bowl, mix together the almond and wheat flour. Add baking soda, cinnamon and chia seeds. 4 Using a hand mixer, mix together the agave syrup, milled flaxseeds, grape juice and 1/4 cup chopped pistachios for about 5 minutes. Keep stirring the mixture and add the vanilla pod, lemon zest, lemon juice, and olive oil. Continue mixing for about 2-3 more minutes. 5 Pour the flour mixture into the liquid mixture. Stir until you get a smooth dough. 6 Oil the cake mold and add the dough. Decorate half the cake with berries (leave 2-3 berries for later) and bake in the oven for 45-55 minutes. 7 Pour the lemon syrup and remaining pistachios on top of the baked cake and leave to cool. 8 Prepare the cream. Open the jar of coconut milk and separate the cream from the water. Using a hand mixer, mix together the cream, cardamom seeds, vanilla, agave syrup and a couple of berries. Whisk on high speed for about 2-3 minutes. 9 Add the cream to the top of the cooled cake and put in the refrigerator to cool again. Enjoy your tea!
