Lastly add almond meal, gluten free flour blend, and gluten free oats and whisk again to combine.

The batter should be slightly thick but very easy to pour

Step 7

Pour batter into your pan and bake for 45 minutes - 1 hour, or when a toothpick inserted comes out clean and the edges are golden brown.

Step 8

While cooling, make your frosting by beating dairy-free butter and cream cheese together, then add vanilla and beat again.

Step 9

Add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until you reach desired consistency and sweetness.

Step 10

It should be fairly thick but still spreadable.

Step 11

Once the cake is fully cooled, frost and serve immediately.

Step 12

You'll have leftover frosting.

The cake should keep covered in the fridge for several days, or in the freezer for several weeks.

Step 14

However, it's best when eaten fresh

Step 15

Let set out for 10-15 minutes before serving if refrigerating so it warms a bit and becomes more tender.
