Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, turmeric, and aniseed. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the turmeric and baking powder.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, honey, and eggs until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir them together until a smooth batter forms. Slowly incorporate the melted coconut oil and mix until fully absorbed.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the pine nuts over the top of the batter, distributing them evenly for garnish and additional flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the cake and serve. Enjoy your Paleo-friendly Sfouf with a cup of coffee or tea!
