Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour 192g
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar 150g
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar 30g
  • ½ cup unsalted butter 113g
  • 4 large eggs 200g
  • ½ cup buttermilk 120g
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract 4g
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder 4g
  • ¼ teaspoon salt 1.5g
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds 21g

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven is warming up, get your 9-inch round cake pan ready and line it with parchment paper.
  • In a big mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until the texture is light and fluffy. This step is key to achieving a soft cake texture.
  • Incorporate the eggs one at a time, fully blending each before moving to the next. Mix in the almond extract for that classic flavor touch.
  • Grab your second bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt, and whisk them together well.
  • Carefully combine this mixture with your wet ingredients, adding it in stages along with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan and use a spatula to smooth out the top.
  • Pop the pan into the oven and let it bake for around 30 minutes. When you insert a toothpick into the center and it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, your cake is perfectly done!
  • When the cake is done, give it about 10 minutes to chill out in the pan before moving it, and enjoy your delicious almond nut cake recipe.

Notes

  • Once it’s out of the oven, give it at least 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • The cake leftovers can remain tasty for up to 3 months! Thaw at room temperature before serving.
