Almond Breakfast Cake

Almond Breakfast Cake
(makes one 9-inch round cake)

1 1/4 cup (10 fl oz) heavy whipping cream
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 cup almond meal (finely ground almonds)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt

Preheat the oven to 350F. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan. Line with a parchment circle and butter the paper.

In a large bowl, mix the cream and sugar with a wooden spoon. Mix in eggs (all 3 at once is okay). Mix in vanilla and almond extracts.

Add the almond meal, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until the dry ingredients are just incorporated.

Pour the batter into your prepared pan. Bake at 350F for about 35 minutes or until your cake tester comes out clean and the cake springs back when lightly touched.
