Vegan & GF Toasted Almond Coffee Cake

I recently tried a simple Vegan, Gluten-Free Toasted Almond Coffee Cake recipe and loved it for its clean, healthy ingredients. It pairs perfectly with morning coffee, which makes those slow mornings at home even more enjoyable ☕️. Although I enjoy indulging in my favorite foods and sweets, it’s important to me to stay on track with my health and fitness goals. This recipe strikes the perfect balance, especially after a long holiday weekend 🙂 I also came across a variation made with oats and bananas, making it a wholesome breakfast option for the whole family—I can’t wait to try it next! The toughest part of this recipe is finding all the ingredients at the store, but once you have them, the rest is a breeze!

I hope you can make and enjoy it soon 😉

Ingredients (base):
• 1 3/4 cup almond flour

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 F
2. In a small mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
3. In a stand mixer or using an electric hand mixer and a bowl, cream together the solid coconut oil and coconut sugar.
4. Pour in almond milk, mix.
5. Slowly add in the dry ingredients, mixing to combine.
6. In an 8”x8” pan, spray with coconut oil and add in coffee cake mixture.
7. Bake for 20 minutes (you will bake more after you add the streusel topping)
