Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Butter a 23cm round flan dish and scatter over 2 tbsp of the caster sugar. Tip in the gooseberries and gently shake the dish to coat the berries in the sugar. Set aside.
step 2
Tip the remaining sugar, the eggs, flour, ground almonds, vanilla extract, lemon zest and a small pinch of salt into a bowl, and whisk until smooth. Slowly whisk in the cream until it’s been fully incorporated and the batter is completely smooth.
step 3
Pour the batter over the berries, scatter over the flaked almonds and bake for 30-35 mins until puffed up and light brown. Leave to cool slightly, then dust with icing sugar and serve warm.
