It’s fair to say that this Pistachio Polenta Cake with Mandarin Syrup and Figs combines a few of my favourite things.

The combination of pistachio and polenta provide a wonderful texture and flavour to the cake that is perfectly balanced by juicy ripe figs.

Add in a luscious mandarin syrup and you take this cake from merely amazing to absolutely unforgettable.

Did I mention that it’s gluten free too.

This truly gourmet Pistachio Polenta Cake With Mandarin Syrup and Figs is from the kitchen of the very talented Scandi Foodi.
