Ingredients

2 whole Eggs
3/4 cup Powdered Sugar
1/3 cup Oil unflavoured
1/3 cup Milk room temp.
1 cup Flour all purpose
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Baking Soda
2 tbsp Almond Powder
1/4 tsp Yellow Food Coloring powder
1/4 cup Almonds to garnish flakes
1 tbsp Butter

Instructions

For the Mold:

Align your baking mold with a parchment paper and grease it with butter so that your almonds could stick to the bottom.
Stick flakes of almonds to the base of your mold and make a pattern of your choice.
Keep it in the freezer until you make the batter .

For the Batter:

In a bowl, add two eggs, add vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Use an electric beater or a whisk and mix it well.
Add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar and beat until it gets fluffy and the sugar is well dissolved.
Add oil and milk and beat again for a minute or two.
Sift the dry ingredients such as flour, baking powder and baking soda through a sieve.
Fold the batter gently with a whisk until the mixture is even and smooth without any lumps.
Add in the good coloring, Almond powder and mix it with a spatula.
Mix everything until the batter is smooth and even.
Take your mold out, the almonds at the base would probably be fixed in place by now.
Transfer the batter into the cake mold, tap pm the countertop to remove any bubbles.
Bake in a preheated pan or oven for 40-45 minutes at a low flame.
Open the lid once you smell the almondy aroma in the air and check it with a plain knife or a skewer. If it comes out clean, your cake is ready to take out.
Cover it with a cloth to lock in the moisture and demold it after it returns to room temperature.

Pro Tip: You can also brush it a bit with caramel syrup or honey to add a bit of extra moisture and sweetness.
