- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup honey
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tbsp slivered almonds
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a cake pan generously to prevent sticking. I like using a round springform pan for easy slicing. The smell of butter coating the pan gets me excited every time!
In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Almond flour gives the batter a soft, crumbly texture. You’ll notice how fine and fragrant it is as you mix. This step ensures even rising during baking.
Crack the eggs into another bowl and whisk them with honey, melted butter, vanilla extract, and milk. Watch how the golden honey blends smoothly with the creamy butter. This mixture smells heavenly—sweet and comforting all at once.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until smooth. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are okay here. The batter will be thick but pourable, with a glossy sheen from the honey.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle slivered almonds on top. These add a delightful crunch to the soft cake. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Your kitchen will smell amazing as it bakes!
This recipe is a beloved classic for its simple preparation and irresistible taste. Delight your family and friends with this charming dessert!
