Strawberry layer cake

I found this recipe from green kitchen stories.
 I decided to change it around a bit for the fun of it. Hope you like it.

Makes a 10 layer cake
 Pancake recipe:

1 1/4 cup spelt flour
2 3/4 cups oat milk
3 eggs
a pinch of salt
1/2 tsp vanilla powder
For frying: 25 g coconut oil

In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the spelt flour and half of the oat milk. Stir around and then add the rest of the ingredients. Stir until the batter is lump-free. Fry the pancakes in a medium sized pan with some coconut oil. Put the pancakes in the fridge so they are cold before assembling the layers.

Between the layers:

4 ripe bananas (mashed)
200 g blueberries + juice and peel from 1/2 lime (Together)
200 g strawberries (sliced thinly)
200 g raspberries (mashed) 100 g almonds + 10 dates + 2 tbsp water (blended together)

Start with one pancake. Spread half of the banana mash on it and put a new pancake on top of it. Spread out half of the blueberries and put a new pancake on top of it. Half of the strawberries, spread out or assembled corner on corner, new pancake, half of the raspberries, new pancake, all of the almond/date mixture, new pancake. Repeat until all the pancakes have filling in between the layers. The top pancake shouldn’t have any filling.

On the top:

1 cup whipped soya cream
250 g fresh sweet strawberries (sliced)
Spread the soya cream in a thick layer on the top. Decorate with as many strawberries that you can fit on it. Don’t be concerned if it looks a bit messy. Messy is pretty.
