Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk and spatula
  • Stand or hand mixer
  • 9-inch round cake pan
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Almond Flour (150g)
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (125g)
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter (115g)
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar (150g)
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Almond Extract
  • 1/2 cup Milk (120ml)
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Almonds (50g)
  • Optional: Powdered Sugar For dusting
  • Optional: Glaze For topping

Instructions
 

  • Preparing the Pan
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Mixing Dry Ingredients
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Creaming Butter and Sugar
    In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Adding Eggs and Almond Extract
    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the almond extract.
  • Combining Wet and Dry Ingredients
    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Fold in the chopped almonds.
  • Pouring the Batter
    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Baking
    Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Decorating and Serving
    Once cooled, dust the cake with powdered sugar or drizzle with a glaze before serving.
