With just 3 ingredients you can make a delicious cake&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t a bit skeptical about this recipe nor did I shy away from trying this cake. As soon as I saw this recipe on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.anjasfood4thought.com\/2010\/09\/flourless-almond-honey-cake.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Anja&#8217;s Food 4 thought<\/a>, I screamed with joy as it&#8217;s gluten free and it called for only 3 main ingredients. Absolutely the kind of recipe I always want to try.<\/p>\n<p>A bag of ground almonds has been sitting in my pantry for a few weeks as I wasn&#8217;t quite sure on what to make. Hence, I googled for some recipe ideas and stumbled upon Anja&#8217;s website. Without much thinking, I walked straight into my kitchen and started making the cake. It took me less than 5 minutes to make the cake batter and in just 20 minutes a beautiful moist cake came out of the oven. Waiting for the cake to be out of the oven, my hubby came running too. After a few clicks of the cake, we both digged in and finished the cake in less than 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks and hugs to Anja for sharing the recipe and Yes! I am glued to her website these days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gluten Free Almond Honey Cake<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7498 size-full\" title=\"Gluten free almond
