Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup coconut flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar or coconut sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ cup melted coconut oil or butter
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar.
- Mix Everything Together: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just mixed. Stir gently and avoid overmixing to ensure the cake remains soft and fluffy.
- Pour the Batter and Bake: Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared two 8-inch cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.
Notes
Ingredient Temperature: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature to help the batter mix evenly and create a smoother cake texture.
Check if the Cake is Done: Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. The cake is fully baked if it comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached.
Storage Tips: Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
Customization: Feel free to add a handful of fresh berries or chocolate chips to the batter for added flavor and texture.
