Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8-inch round cake pan by greasing it and lining with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer, combine 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal mixed with 2.5 tablespoons of water, granulated sugar, and almond extract. Beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
- Gradually fold in the almond flour in three batches using a gentle motion to maintain lightness.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 1 hour.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar and add optional toppings before serving.
