For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of almond extract to the batter. If you don't have sour cream, plain Greek yogurt can be used as a substitute. To prevent the cake from sticking, ensure the pan is thoroughly greased and floured. Alternatively, use baking spray with flour. Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
