Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan, ensuring the bottom and sides are well coated to prevent sticking.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
-
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the almond extract for that wonderful almond flavor.
-
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, with a few moist crumbs attached.
-
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
To serve, sprinkle the top of the cake with sliced almonds for a lovely finishing touch. Slice and enjoy this delightful Almond Cake with a cup of tea or coffee.
