7.	Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack.

9.	Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top and serve.

Tips:

For a richer flavor, you can substitute the almond milk with coconut milk or soy milk.
You can also add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, to the batter for a crunchy texture.
This cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
