Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- ¼ cup coconut oil softened
- ½ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure almond extract
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cider vinegar or lemon juice
- 2 1/2 cups almond meal/flour
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon optional
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 6 ripe figs sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
- Add all of the ingredients except for the figs to a high-powered blender. Blend just until combined. Note: the batter will be very thick.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Arrange the sliced figs on top, pushing them gently into the batter.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until cake is golden-brown. Turn off the oven and keep the cake in the hot oven for another 10 to 15 minutes (until the center of the cake feels firm when gently poked) before removing.
- Allow cake to cool 30 minutes before releasing it from its mold. Serve with fresh sliced figs and a drizzle of honey or pure maple syrup if desired.
