Upside Down Almond Fig Cake

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the almond flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Add the vanilla extract to the egg mixture and stir to combine.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined into a smooth batter.

Assemble and Bake:

Pour the cake batter over the figs in the cake pan, spreading it out evenly.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool and Flip:

Allow the cake to cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan. Then, carefully run a knife around the edges of the cake to loosen it.

Place a plate on top of the pan, flip it over, and gently lift the pan off. The figs and caramelized sugar will now be on top, creating a beautiful upside-down presentation.

Serve:

Serve warm or at room temperature. This cake pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
