Portuguese Almond Cake
This is a rather light cake - instead of the traditional almond syrup
used in the Portuguese recipe, we like to serve it with some fresh
seasonal berries. A little drizzle of a sugar free flavored syrup would
be nice also.
6 eggs
2 Tbsp raw honey
1 cup ground almonds
1 tsp almond extract
1 tsp baking soda
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat the eggs on low with a hand or stand mixer. (A blender will also
work.)
Add the ground almonds, honey, almond extract, and baking soda and
continue to mix.
Bake in a 9 1/2 inch round baking pan for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Check
the cake after 45 minutes; the top of the cake should be golden brown
and the middle slightly moist.
Once cooked, let the cake cool before serving.
Makes: 8 to 10 servings
This is not including the berries or a syrup.
