*Almond flour is made from blanched almonds (without the skin) and the texture can be somewhat lumpy. If you prefer a fine crumb I recommend sifting out 3/4 cup before adding it to the bowl with the other dry ingredients. This will help remove some of the larger lumps so that the end result has more of a fine texture. However, please note that they will still be more dense than a white flour cupcake because there are no starches in the recipe.
