Almond Flour Layer Cake

Almond Flour Layer Cake
For a tasty gluten-free, grain-free cake
in just 30 minutes

Preheat oven to 350
Line a 9″ pan or two 6″ pans with parchment
It is goes together so quickly because it has
so few ingredients.
This cake comes out perfect every time
I make it, which is almost every week.
I love how beautifully it rises, too!

Ingredients:

Whisk together
In a large Bowl
with beater or stick blender
3 eggs
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup raw sugar (or honey) 

2 tbs. dairy-free milk
1/2 tsp.Vanilla

STIR IN Gently
2 cups almond flour
1/2 tsp. baking, soda
1/2 tsp. salt


OPTIONAL:
1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped dried fruit
or fresh or frozen berries

Pour dry ingredients into wet.
Mix gently just to combine.

Bake at 350º F 18 to 20 minutes for two 6″
cakes,
or until a
toothpick in center comes out
clean. The 8 or 9″ may take a few minutes longer.
Ovens and ingredients can vary slightly.

Do Not overbake. It will be too dry.
Touch  the top of the cake if you believe
it is done. If your finger starts to sink in,
give it 2 more mins and try again. I watch
through the oven window, and start to
test it when it looks fully risen.

9″ round Plain Almond Flour Cake.

It works great as a strawberry shortcake
because it is dense enough to hold up
under sliced strawberries and whipped
cream
