    When the Eggplant has cooled, remove the stalk and place all of the eggplant skin, liquid from eggplant and flesh it in your TMX. Add all of the other ingredients except the almond meal. Process on speed 6 until well combined, the lemon and baking soda will interact and bubble a little.


    Scrape mix down sides and blend again if needed. The more you mix at this stage, the less skin will be visible in the final cake.
