Almond Cake
(adapted from a recipe published by Bob’s Red Mill Almond Meal/Flour)
3/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
Cream together the butter and sugar until blended. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the milk and vanilla and blend until smooth. In a separate bowl blend the flours, salt and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix until smooth and creamy. Spread the dough into a lightly greased 13×9 inch baking pan and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Cool and serve with fresh fruit and sweetened cream if desired.

Well … hope you have a happy Monday. If all goes as planned, we’re now at the hospital waiting to meet our grandson. Wow – this is really intense, and exciting, and wonderful. Being a grandmother will be a big responsibility! Hope you guys don’t mind a few baby pictures thrown in from time to time!
Thanks so much for stopping by and thanks again for all the well wishes, prayers and notes. You are the best!

I ADORE almond cake! I usually make the orange almond cake – with seville oranges, but Im also thinking of trying a lemon version soon. I love with the addition of coconut though!<br /><br />Good luck!!

Oh my goodness! I'm in love. I can't believe you made a cake with that fantastic looking texture without using any grains at all. I can hardly wait to make this for Valentines day. Thank you!!!

I'm anxiously awaiting news and photos!!! <br /><br />This cake looks so very good… perfect for spring. Before your blog, I had never even heard of almond or coconut flour! Both flavors are favorites around this house… and fruit! Oh, yeah! <br /><br />Sending hugs and prayers today… intense is an understatement. blessings ~ tanna

Wow, that looks fantastic! I've never bought almond flour but use ground almonds alot which I think is kind of similar, just not as fine perhaps. I like the combo of almond and coconut, sounds lush!<br /><br />The berries on top are a nice touch too :)<br /><br />Hungry Jenny x
