Ingredients
Scale
Almond Flour Cake:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup tapioca flour
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 3 tbsp dairy free milk
Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- In one bowl, combine the flours, coconut sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, coconut oil, vanilla and milk.
- Create a well in your dry ingredients, pour in your wet ingredients, and stir until combined.
- Pour batter into 3 greased 6 inch pans.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool completely before trying to remove from pan to ensure it doesn’t stick.
- Combine your frosting ingredients in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer until smooth.
- Then apply frosting! If you want to apply a crumb coat to create the smoothest frosting layer, keep reading:
- for crumb coat you are going to put a small layer of frosting on top of the entire cake and then put in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Then when you take it out you will finish your frosting process. This makes the final layer much smoother!
