Almond Cake
A quick and fairly healthy desert. Since it doesn't have any butter, and very little sugar, you don't have to feel guilty taking a second helping.
The recipe is originally from the Celiac Sprue Association website. The original can be found at: http://www.csaceliacs.... It's great served with a fruit salad.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs, separated
- 2/3 c sugar
- 1/4 c potato starch, sifted
- 1/2 c orange juice
- 1/2 t cinnamon
- 1 3/4 c ground blanched almonds
Directions
- Step 1
Beat the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is thick and fluffy. Beat in alternately the potato starch and orange juice. Add the almonds and cinnamon; mix well.
- Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry; fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture.
- Step 3
Grease and dust with potato starch an 8-inch spring-form pan.
- Step 4
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center, comes out clean.
