"I love Summer with all the delicious fruits!
This time my friends brought me tons of sweeeeeet (ohh they were so sweet) cherries. Since I have been diagnosed with PCOS that I need to reinvent my cookbook and be compliant with my new medical condition. Therefore, this is a Vegan, Gluten- and low GI index adaptation of a CRISPY CAKE WITH CHERRIES from Foodie.
I have prepared it for a birthday party and everyone loved it!"
