Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (120g) almond flour
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (120ml) milk
- 1 cup (125g) fresh raspberries
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (3–5 minutes with an electric mixer).
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries without overmixing.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Use a gluten-free flour blend in place of all-purpose flour for a gluten-free option.
- Substitute dairy ingredients with coconut oil and almond or oat milk for a dairy-free version.
- Enhance flavor by adding a teaspoon of almond extract or a sprinkle of lemon zest.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
