Instructions:

4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
  • Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until you have a uniform batter.
5. Bake:
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Prepare the Glaze (optional):
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered erythritol, almond milk, and almond extract until you have a smooth glaze.
7. Glaze the Cake:
  • Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes, then drizzle the glaze evenly over the top.
