Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free potato starch
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Frying pan
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. This step is crucial for ensuring your cake bakes evenly. While the oven warms up, prepare your cake pan. Line it with parchment paper and lightly spray it with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the almond flour, all-purpose gluten-free flour, potato starch, corn starch, baking powder, and coconut sugar. Sifting helps to aerate the flours and ensures there are no lumps, giving your cake a nice texture.
  3. In a separate small bowl, beat together the coconut milk, eggs, orange juice, orange zest, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix well until fully combined. You want to create a smooth mixture that will enhance the flavor of your cake.
  4. Gradually add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, fold the batter gently to ensure you don’t overmix it. The mixture should be thick yet pourable.
  5. Once mixed, pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Spread it evenly to ensure uniform baking. The anticipation builds as you see your cake come together!
  6. Now, bake the cake in the oven for about 30 to 40 minutes. Keep an eye on it; you'll know it's done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. This is the moment when your kitchen will be filled with the delightful aroma of orange!
  7. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Allow it to cool completely. This is when you can prepare any toppings or frosting if desired.
  8. Once cooled, feel free to frost it with your favorite vanilla frosting or serve it plain. Either way, you’ll enjoy this delightful cake that’s reminiscent of summer!
