- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp almond extract
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions:

Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan with parchment paper.
-
Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the ricotta cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth and well combined. The mixture should be creamy.
-
Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix gently until everything is fully incorporated. The batter will be slightly thick but smooth.
-
Pour the batter into the pan: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
-
Bake: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake should be lightly golden on top.
-
Cool: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve: Once the cake has cooled, you can dust the top with powdered sugar or top it with sliced almonds or berries for extra flair.
