Ingredients

9 servings

1½ cups granulated white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, (at room temperature)
¾ cup unsalted butter, (melted and cooled slightly)
1½ teaspoons almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1½ cups all purpose flour
¾ cup sliced almonds
¼ cup apricot jam

Steps

Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray a 9-inch round baking pan with baking spray (nonstick spray with flour).
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, salt, eggs, butter, almond extract and vanilla. Add the flour, and stir with a wooden spoon until just blended.
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Sprinkle with almonds.
Bake in a preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the pan, then invert the cake onto the rack. Spread the warm cake with apricot jam. Let cool completely.
