Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • ½ cup maple syrup or honey
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract optional, but recommended
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar optional

Instructions

  1. Grease the pan. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch cake pan or springform pan. You can also line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Mix dry ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Mix wet ingredients. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Then pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir together until combined into a cake batter.
  4. Bake the cake. Pour the batter into the greased pan and top with sliced almonds. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 15 minutes in the pan, then remove and let the cake cool completely on a wire rack.
  5. Serve. Serve the cake with the simple sliced almond topping, or if you'd like, garnish with a dusting of powdered sugar.
