Cake Ingredients- 4 fresh eggs
- 100g granulated sugar
- 2 pinches of fine salt
- 3-5 drops vanilla extract (adjust to taste)
- 150g finely ground almond flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by cracking 4 fresh eggs into a mixing bowl. Gently whisk them until the yolks and whites are well combined and any stringy bits are broken down.
Step 2
Add 100g of granulated sugar, 2 pinches of fine salt, and 3-5 drops of vanilla extract to the whisked eggs. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and all ingredients are evenly incorporated. The vanilla extract enhances the cake’s aroma and flavor beautifully.
Step 3
Next, sift 150g of finely ground almond flour and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon into the egg mixture. Using a spatula or whisk, gently fold these dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix from the bottom up, being careful not to overmix, as this can lead to a dense cake. Stop mixing as soon as you no longer see streaks of flour.
Step 4
Pour the prepared cake batter into a round cake pan that has been lined with parchment paper or greased. After pouring, gently tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles, which will help create a smoother cake surface.
Step 5
Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for approximately 30 minutes. Avoid opening the oven door frequently while baking. To check for doneness, insert a skewer or toothpick into the center of the cake; it should come out clean. Baking time may vary depending on your oven. Allow the cake to cool completely before removing it from the pan and enjoying!
