Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 20cm (8-inch) springform pan with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse the sugar-free amaretti cookies until they form fine crumbs. Transfer to a bowl.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, crushed amaretti crumbs, erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener), baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and unsweetened almond milk, mixing until incorporated.
Slowly fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle slivered almonds on top for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve. Enjoy your sugar-free Torta agli Amaretti with a cup of coffee or tea!
