Our Lady of Fatima Celebration

To download, just click the links below. There is a PDF file for those who want to cut them out with scissors, or for those with Cricut or Silhouette machines, I’ve included transparent PNG files.

Here are the files:

Also, I’ve kind of been on a bundt cake kick lately! Anyone else 😂??? I don’t know why, but I just love the simplicity of them and the rustic, old-fashioned look. So for anyone who’d like to try a delicious Almond Bundt Cake recipe (which happens to also be Gluten Free, or you can make it with regular AP flour!) I’ve included it below! It’s almost like a pound cake, but with less butter and a hint of an almond flavor. Using an almond flour blend makes it super moist. Great for breakfast, an afternoon tea-time snack or dessert!

 GLUTEN FREE ALMOND BUNDT CAKE

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (room temperature)

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract

  • 1/2 tsp pure almond extract

  • 4 eggs

  • 2/3 cup milk

*If you want to make a cake that’s not Gluten Free, just substitute regular All Purpose flour for the 1-to-1 GF flour

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325º F.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1-to-1 flour and almond flour.

  3. In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, butter, salt, baking powder, and extracts until smooth.

  4. One at a time, beat in the eggs. Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl. Mixture should be light and fluffy.

  5. Stir in a third of the flour and then half of the milk to the mixture. Keep alternating and end with the flour mixture.

  6. Thoroughly grease a bundt pan using shortening or butter. Scoop the batter into the prepared pan. Tap the pan on the counter to remove air bubbles.

  7. Bake for 50-55 minutes. Top of the cake should spring back when touched lightly and a toothpick should come out clean when inserted.

  8. Remove from oven and cool on a cooling rack for 30 minutes before removing from pan.

  9. After removing from pan, garnish with powdered sugar.
