This Butter Almond Cake was popular in a FB group and I saw many successful attempt on it and had positive reviews as well. Bookmarked it until now then I found motivation to bake a cake.
The weather had been so bad that I was totally not motivated to clank up the oven. Even the bake chicken we had last night was done by Happycall pan.
Realised I have not bake a cake for awhile so here is the good push for me to do so.
I decided to use the air fryer to bake this cake. My first attempt failed as it got deflated after cooled. I think I underbaked it but luckily I didn't have to feed the bin.
The second attempt was a much better one and I baked it longer.

Findings: The cake looks dense but yet it is soft. The almond meal gives the cake a nice fragrance as well.
This recipe is definitely a keeper
