  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 
  • In a small bowl, add the flax and hot water, mix and let it sit for 10 minutes.
  • In a big bowl, add all the dry ingredients. Whisk well so it all gets spread evenly.
  • In a medium bowl, add all the wet ingredients and the flax eggs from the small bowl. Whisk.
  • Using a spatula, add the wet ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Then mix it well using just the spatula. 
  • Butter two 9 inch round pans, and dust them with rice flour.
  • Divide the mixture evenly between the two pans and bake them for around 25 min. After they cool for 10 minutes, flip them carefully onto a cooling rack. Once completely cooled, frost one side of a cake, then add the other cake on top. Frost the top and cover with berries.
