It's a spring coffee cake with three delicious layers. On the bottom is a spelt pastry made with Quark (German fresh cheese) and olive oil, sweetened with erythritol (a sugar alcohol that has zero glycemic index and it does not increase the blood sugars), followed by a layer of fresh strawberries, then it's finished with a buttery crunchy streusel. This is an easy and delicious way to enjoy strawberry season.

Topping & Streusel	Crust with German Quark and Olive Oil
100 g Refined spelt flour 50 g Erythritol Pinch of black salt 80 g Unsalted butter, chopped 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract 600 g Fresh strawberries, halved	150 g Quark (German fresh cheese) 70 ml Milk 75 ml Mild olive oil 60 g Erythritol Pinch of black salt 280 g Refined spelt flour 12 g Baking powder 3 / 9 g Strawberry flavoured tea bags 30 g Almond meal

1. Place spelt, erythritol and salt for the streusel together in a mixing bowl. Add in chopped butter and vanilla extract. Rub everything together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
   
2. Place all the ingredients for the crust, except 30 grams of almond meal, in a mixing bowl. Beat with a handheld mixer until a smooth dough forms. Press the dough evenly into a 22x26x4cm baking pan lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the reserved almond meal over.
   
3. Gently press the halved strawberries into the crust and top with the prepared streusel.
   
4. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Bake the bar in the middle of hot oven for 40 minutes until nicely golden. Remove and turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing into bars.
