Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup of FARMHOUSE EGGS® egg whites (about 4 eggs)
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 cup mild oil (like vegetable or avocado)
  • 1 tbs orange juice
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1.5 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar (can add extra 1/4 cup if not using glaze)
  • 1.5 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch salt
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 3-4 tbs almond milk (can use more for thinner glaze)

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
  2. Grease and flour loaf pan. (You can double the recipe and use a bundt pan.)
  3. In a bowl, combine all wet ingredients except the egg whites.
  4. In a separate large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Add wet to dry and whisk until incorporated.
  5. In a separate clean bowl, whisk egg whites until soft peaks form.
  6. Fold into cake batter.
  7. Pour batter into greased and floured pan and bake for 28-30 minutes. (Insert a toothpick to check. Cake is done when toothpick comes out clean.)
  8. Cool for at least 10 minutes before removing from pan.
  9. While cake is cooling, make tahini glaze.
  10. Whisk together 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 cup tahini, 3-4 tbs almond milk (can use more for thinner glaze) for tahini glaze. Tahini will clump initially, but keep mixing until smooth.
  11. Pour glaze on cooled cake and serve!
