Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened butter and sugar until creamy (about 5 minutes).
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Sift together almond flour, baking powder, and salt; gently fold into the wet mixture until combined.
  5. Stir in vanilla and almond extracts.

Notes

Measure almond flour by spooning into the cup and leveling the top. Use room temperature eggs and softened butter for smooth batter. Do not overmix after adding the almond flour to keep the cake tender.
