BEST APPLE CAKE EVER!


Its autumn in Europe and time to use all the good stuff from the garden! So what about a warm apple cake? If you don't have an apple tree - there is no excuse cause you'll find norwegian apples in any supermarket.

I wanted to make a different cake, and therefore I swapped the normal flour with almond flour. Why? Because it is low in calories, it contains the healthy fat from nuts, it is low in GI, its raw food... yes, its all positive. And most importantly - it tastes even better than with normal flour!  


For one cake you need:

3 eggs
1,5 dl sugar
150 g of butter
150 g of almond flour
2 tbsp  of normal flour
1 tsp of vanilla sugar
2 tbsp of cinnamon
1,5 tsp of baking powder
5 apples (remove the skin and cut into boats)

Use a 24 cm round baking form where you put baking paper in the bottom and grease the rest with some melted butter. This so the cake won't stick.

How to:

Turn the oven on 180 degrees celsius. Melt the butter on low heat on the stove. Beat the eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until the mixture turns thicker and pale yellow. Add the dry ingredients to the mixture. Use a sifter so you don't get any lumps. Then add the butter and mix until smooth.

Pour the mixture to the baking form. Now its time to add the apple boats. I start around the edges and work my way towards the middle. Put as many apples as you can fit - the more the better! 

Lastly add some cinnamon and sugar on top to get that nice effect when its cooking. The cake is baked on the lowest rack in the oven for approximately 40 minutes. Use upper/under heat.

ENJOY IT with some yummy vanilla ice cream:)
