Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, turmeric powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Ensure the mixture is well combined and smooth.
Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Sprinkle the slivered almonds evenly over the top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden.
Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve at room temperature and enjoy your Whole30 Sfouf with a side of unsweetened herbal tea for the perfect afternoon treat.
