Today I propose a almond cake that is very special because it is made only with almond flour without the addition of other powders. A completely gluten-free cake that does not even contain yeast. The only simple and important step to make this dessert is to whip the eggs well together with the sugar. Few ingredients for a truly excellent result. The almond cake is a very moist dessert inside, to enjoy at any time of the day.
