Step-by-Step Instructions for Almond Flour Greek Yogurt Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a round cake pan by greasing it with butter or oil and dusting with almond flour, or lining with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt, 3 large eggs, ½ cup of honey (or maple syrup), 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and the optional zest of 1 lemon until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of almond flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and ½ teaspoon of salt until well incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until fully blended without overmixing.
  5. Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
