- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, extra virgin olive oil, plain greek yogurt, almond extract, and milk.
- Once combined, fold in the flour, almond meal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until just combined (some lumps are okay).
- Then gently fold in the fresh sliced strawberries.
- Transfer the batter to a greased bundt pan and bake for 30-40 minutes or until the cake springs back like a sponge and is just golden.
While the cake cools make the glaze. Stir together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and almond extract. The glaze should be the consistency of liquid glue. Add more powdered sugar or liquid as needed to reach your desired consistency. - After the cake has cooled completely, drizzle with the glaze and sprinkle with almond slivers.
