Ingredients:
Dry Ingredients:
Almond flour - 2 cups
Coconut flour - 1/2 cup
Baking soda - 1 tsp
Cinnamon - 1 tsp
Nutmeg - 1/2 tsp
Cloves - 1/4 tsp
Salt - 1/4 tsp

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch cake pan with coconut oil. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients until well combined. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until a thick batter forms.
