½ cup almond flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon

In a large bowl, combine the flour, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and salt.
In another large bowl, whisk together the cane sugar and lemon zest. Then add the yogurt, olive oil, eggs, and vanilla and whisk to combine.
