Poppy Seed Pie Without Flour
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. I suggest making a poppy seed cake without flour. Since there is no flour in the cake at all, the texture of the bake turns out very delicate and airy. And there is a lot of poppy seed here; I highly recommend all its lovers to try this treat. Moreover, you can not only bake the cake, but also cut it into portions and layer the pieces with whipped cream. It will turn out a very flavorful and healthy pastry! Take note and confidently prepare. The bake is ready. Serve at the table.
