Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup almond butter softened
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • (optional) powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Add whites to a stand mixer with whisk attachment and whisk on high for 4-5 minutes, until stiff peaks form.
  • Beat egg yolks, almond butter, and almond flour in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
  • Gently fold half of the egg whites into batter until smooth, then fold in the remaining whites.
  • Generously grease an 8" springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan and spread to the edges so the top is flat.
  • Bake at 375° for 25-35 minutes, until center is set. Let cake cool completely in the pan.
  • Transfer cake to a serving platter and optionally dust with powdered sugar before slicing.
