    2 cups almond flour, ½ cup tapioca flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • Line an 8 X 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Spoon in half of the batter into an even layer in the bottom of the pan, making sure to reach the corners. Sprinkle half of the filling crumbles over top of the batter. Spoon the rest of the batter on top and finish it off with the rest of the filing crumbles on top.
  • Bake the pan in the oven for 30 - 35 minutes until the edges begin to pull away from the sides and the top is golden brown. Allow the cake to cool down while you prepare the icing.
  • When ready to serve, make the icing by whisking together the cream cheese, milk, and powdered sugar until smooth. Drizzle the icing over the cake, slice into pieces, and serve.
