Almond Flour Cake

Step 1

It is important to have room temperature eggs for this recipe. So, leave the eggs at room temperature for several hours or preferably overnight.

Step 4

Pre heat oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of a 8-inch round baking pan with parchment paper and grease the bottom and sides with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

Step 7

Place eggs and brown sugar in a large bowl and beat with a hand held electric beater, on high, for about 4 minutes, until pale in color and thickened.

Step 10

Add almond flour, vanilla extract, baking powder and salt. Continue beating for an additional one minute ( start on low speed and build to high).

Step 13

Using a rubber spatula, scrape the sides of the bowl and gently stir couple of times.

Step 16

Transfer batter to prepared pan, spread evenly and sprinkle sliced almonds on top (if using).

Step 19

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a tooth pick inserted in the middle comes clean.

Step 22

Place pan on a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 24

Enjoy cake plain with coffee or with whipped cream and berries.
