Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch round cake pan with oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter is formed. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle almond slices evenly over the top of the batter for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Slice and enjoy your vegan sugar-free vanilla almond cake as is or with a dollop of coconut cream for an extra treat!
