In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the ricotta mixture, mixing until just combined.

Fold in chopped almonds gently into the batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing the sides.
