You’ve had bundt cake.
You’ve had yellow layer cakes.
You’ve had almond cake.
But have you had all three, together, in ONE cake? Well, then, today is your lucky day.
As soon as I saw this Almond Yeast Cake recipe from Red Star Yeast, I knew I had to try it.
It’s a bundt cake, made with a yellow cake mix and Red Star Yeast (yeast! in cake!), plus a whole heaping cup of ground almonds.
It sounds so crazy! So different! I had a feeling we would love it. And I was right.
Once you’ve had one cake, it seems like you’ve had them all, you know? But this was such a fun and different cake to make.
It felt like baking bread – without the long rising times. And without any kneading or shaping. And even better, it was dessert.
The ground almonds are speckled all throughout the cake batter, which is just a little thicker than normal, thanks to the almonds and yeast.
It rises for just 30 minutes, so it doesn’t add much prep time, but it adds so much flavor! It’s a deeper, sweeter flavor than a plain yellow cake. And the almonds and almond extract put it over the top.
Pretty sure the only thing this needs is a hot cup of coffee and a fork.
