Tips:

  • Use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour: Almond flour is a gluten-free alternative to all-purpose flour and gives the cake a moist and tender texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a bundt pan: A bundt pan creates a beautiful fluted design on the cake.
  • Don't overbake the cake: Overbaking the cake can make it dry. Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. The toothpick should come out clean when the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it: This will help the glaze set properly.
