Ingredients
  

Cake Base
  • 1 cup almond flour finely ground
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk whole or 2%
Raspberry Filling
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
Topping
  • 1 cup whipped cream for serving
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds for garnish

Method
 

Prepare the Cake
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk, and mix until just combined.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan. Spread half of the raspberries over the batter, then add the remaining batter on top.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Prepare Raspberry Filling
  1. In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Assemble the Cake
  1. Once the cake is completely cool, slice it in half horizontally.
  2. Spread the raspberry filling on the bottom layer, then place the top layer back on.
  3. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with sliced almonds before serving.
