Ingredients

  • 3 cups almond flour (blanched superfine)
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ½ cup sweetener
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (or melted coconut oil)
  • ⅓ cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup sliced almonds
  • 3 tbsp powdered sweetener (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F/ 180°C. Line the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan with parchment paper and grease the sides.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, add the eggs, sweetener, almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Using an electric mixer, mix for about 30 seconds or until frothy.

  3. 3

    Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until a slightly thick batter forms.

  4. 4

    Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and top with the sliced almonds.

  5. 5

    Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cake top looks golden and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes in the pan until it is no longer hot. Use a knife to release the edges of the cake and place the cake on a wire rack to cool completely.

  7. 7

    Sprinkle with powdered sweetener, and enjoy!
