Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons turbinado sugar, divided
- 4 cups pecan halves, toasted
- 3 cups walnut halves, toasted
- 1 1/2 cups slivered almonds, toasted
- 3/4 cup finely ground plain white cornmeal
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 6 large eggs
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup half-and-half
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Coffee Cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °. Sprinkle 3 Tbsp. turbinado sugar in a well-greased (with butter) 12-inch cast-iron skillet. Process pecans, walnuts, and almonds in a food processor until coarsely chopped; reserve 2 cups coarsely chopped nuts. Add cornmeal to remaining nuts in processor; pulse until nuts are finely chopped.
- Beat butter and brown sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer 2 to 3 minutes or until light and fluffy.
- Whisk together eggs and next 4 ingredients in a medium bowl. Gradually add egg mixture to butter mixture, beating at low speed 2 minutes or until blended, stopping to scrape bowl as needed. Gradually add cornmeal mixture to batter, beating until well blended; fold in reserved 2 cups coarsely chopped nuts. Spoon batter into prepared skillet. Level batter using an offset spatula, and sprinkle remaining 3 Tbsp. turbinado sugar over batter.
- Bake at 350 ° for 45 to 55 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with Coffee Cream.
- Make-Ahead Tip Gluten-Free Goodness: This deliciously dense cake uses ground heart-healthy nuts and cornmeal for structure. It actually tastes better as it sits and can be made up to 4 days ahead. Just whip the cream and serve.
