Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line or grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.

  • Add baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.
  • Fold in almond flour and crushed walnuts until a thick batter forms. Pour into the prepared pan.

  • Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the cake batter.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the top is golden.
  • Let cool slightly before serving. Optional: Drizzle with a dairy-free vanilla glaze if you like it extra sweet!
