How to Make Banana Citrus Almond Torte

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. In a medium bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Add the mashed bananas, lemon zest, and orange zest to the batter and mix until evenly distributed.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and spread evenly.
7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Let the torte cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing the sides of the pan and transferring the torte to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Once completely cool, dust with powdered sugar or serve with whipped cream or a citrus glaze (recipe not included).
