This praline flourless cake is one of my favorite desserts to whip up when I want something decadent but surprisingly simple. Since there's no flour involved, it comes together in just 25 minutes of prep, making it perfect for when guests are coming over and you're short on time. The ground almonds give you a wonderfully moist texture while packing in protein and healthy fats that regular flour just can't match. With just a handful of basic ingredients and 35 minutes in the oven, you'll have a rich, elegant cake that tastes like you spent all day in the kitchen.
