Almond honey and cinnamon cake

HOW TO MAKE ALMOND HONEY AND CINNAMON CAKE

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF). Grease a bundt cake pan with margarine and dust with flour.

Step 2: In a food processor, grind the almonds until they become a fine powder; set aside.

Step 3: Beat the sugar, eggs and the lemon zest until a homogeneous mixture. Add the grinded almond kernel, honey, cinnamon and mix about 3 to 4 minutes until well incorporated. Add the flour mixed with the baking powder and beat until a homogeneous and quite creamy mixture.

Step 4: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake about 25 minutes.

Step 5: Remove the cake from the oven and unmold onto a plate. Let cool to room temperature and serve.

TIPS FOR ALMOND HONEY AND CINNAMON CAKE

1. When preheating the oven, make sure you have all ingredients ready to start making the cake.

2. Place the oven rack in the middle. This allows the hot air to circulate evenly around the cake, resulting in even cooking.

3. When placing the cake in the oven, the oven should not be too hot, if it is, the cake will rise too quickly and there will be no time for the inside of the cake to cook at the same speed (what often happens is the cake sinks in the middle). If the oven is too hot, leave the oven door open until the temperature drops a little.

• Zest of one lemon
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• 150 grams (5 1/3 ounces) almond kernel
• 4 eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
