Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the matzo meal, almond flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to combine all the dry ingredients.
-
In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks until pale and creamy. Add the vegetable oil, water, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
-
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
-
In another clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter until just incorporated.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
-
Sprinkle the sliced almonds evenly over the top of the batter.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the torte is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the torte from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before releasing the sides of the springform pan.
-
Once completely cooled, dust the top of the torte with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
-
Slice and serve the Matzo Meal Almond Torte as is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for a delightful dessert experience.
