Best 3 Moist Almond Flour Cake Recipes

FLUFFY ALMOND FLOUR CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease an 8-inch nonstick cake pan with soft butter.
• In a large bowl, lightly whisk the eggs. One by one, gradually whisk in the honey, vanilla, almond flour, kosher salt, and baking soda. Don't over mix the batter - overworked batter can cause the middle of the cake to collapse as it cools.
• Use a spatula to transfer the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake until fragrant and set and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 22-25 minutes.
• Cool the cake, in the pan on a cooling rack, for 10 minutes. Then invert it onto the cooling rack and cool for 20 more minutes before slicing and serving.

ALMOND CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Grease/butter a 9" cake pan or 9" springform pan. Line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350˚F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar. Beat with an electric hand mixer on high speed 3 minutes or until thick, creamy and lightened in color. Add 1 1/2 cups almond flour and 1 Tbsp lemon zest and use a spatula to fold and stir together until incorporated. Wash and dry attachments from the mixer.
• In a second large mixing bowl, add 4 egg whites and beat together until stiff peaks form (about 2 minutes). Fold the egg whites 1 heaping spoonful at a time into the almond batter, folding with each addition just until incorporated and scraping from the bottom of the bowl to ensure batter has an even consistency.
• Once all the egg whites are incorporated and batter is even in consistency (do not over-mix), transfer batter to the prepared baking pan and sprinkle the top with 1/4 cup sliced almonds. Bake at 350˚F for 30 minutes or until top is firm.
• Let cake rest in the pan 15 minutes then run a thin spatula around the sides and invert it onto your hand then place it right side up on the rack. Let cool to room temperature and garnish with powdered sugar and lemon slices if desired.

MOIST ALMOND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and position the rack to the center of the oven. Line the bottom of a 9-inch cake pan with a round of parchment paper, or butter and dust it lightly with flour, tapping out any excess.
• With an electric mixer, beat together the sugar and almond paste until the paste is finely broken up (the sugar crystals help break the paste into pieces--so don't add the butter yet!).
• Now add the butter and beat for a few minutes until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl stir together the eggs with a fork then dribble it into the batter as you beat. Add the vanilla.
• Mix together the flour, baking powder and salt with a whisk. Stir the dry ingredients into the batter until just incorporated.
• Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time may take a bit longer due to the variation in different brands of almond paste.
• Cool the cake on a rack before serving.
