Ingredients
- 90 g butter room temperature

- 130 g all-purpose flour
- 50 g almond flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 120 g sour cream room temperature
- 30 g vegetable oil e.g. canola oil

Instructions
- To get started, preheat your conventional oven to 170ºC and prepare a 20x20 cm baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
- Mix together all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then set aside for later use.
- Begin by placing butter and granulated sugar in a mixing bowl. Utilize the paddle attachment and set it to high speed, letting it mix for a duration of 3 minutes.
- Gradually incorporate each egg into the mixture, ensuring thorough mixing.
- Begin by scraping down the bowl's sides, then add the flour mixture and continue mixing at low speed until it's just combined.
- Incorporate sour cream, vegetable oil, vanilla, and almond extract into the mixture, ensuring not to overwork the cake batter.
- Ensure all the ingredients are well combined by gently folding the batter with a rubber spatula.
- Gently pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake it for 28-30 minutes, or until a clean cake tester emerges.
- Allow the cake to cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then gently remove it from the tin and let it cool down entirely.
