Ingredients
Topping

Cake batter
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 2 ½ teaspoons ground cardamom
- ½ teaspoon baking powder

- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
For serving, optional

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and lightly coat a 9” round cake pan with cooking spray. Sprinkle the bottom of the pan with brown sugar and evenly scatter the sliced almonds. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cardamom, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
