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