About this recipe

This Gluten-Free Cinnamon Tea Cake is amazing. It’s super easy to make and delicious!! It’s soft and fluffy, and you will love it!!!

The main flour of the cake is almond flour, and I mixed it with corn and potato starch. I used store-bought almond flour, but I think you can use homemade. It’s important for the flour to be super fine.

It’s always best to make the cake on the day of serving and serve it warm. But it also freezes very well.

Ingredients

  • Almond flour: super fine store-bought almond flour. You can also use a home-made one.
  • Butter: unsalted butter softened for the cake, and unsalted butter melted to end it up.
  • Brown sugar: brown sugar for the cake and white granulated sugar to end it up.
  • Baking powder: gluten-free baking powder. Leaving agent.
  • Milk: whole milk.
  • Egg: room temperature egg is better.
  • Cinnamon: grated cinnamon to end up the cake.

Store the cake in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or you can store it in the fridge for 5 days.
