Yeah, this happened... Three times in one week actually. That's how fast it goes. I've warned you. Have plenty of apples on hand.
I made this cake for my Mother and Sister for our Mothers Day Brunch that we have every year. They brought home half and by the time my husband and son had dessert the cake was gone!
Here you go mom!
Gluten Free Disapearing Apple Cake
By Batter to Bake
Ingredients:
Apple filling:
2 cored, peeled and diced apples set aside in a bowl
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 tbsp sugar ( in this cake pictured above I used truvia)
In cake one and two I threw in a fourth cup of craisins
Mix together and set aside
Cake:
3 cups of gluten free oat flour( if you are not gf then just three cups of oat flour)
1 1/2 cup raw sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
( since we do not like things overly sweet we cut down the sugar to half cup brown half cup Raw)
1 stick of softened unsalted butter or coconut butter
1 medium banana mashed
1 1/4 cups plain Greek yogurt( or two 6-7 ounce containers)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
A pinch of salt
5 eggs
2 tbsp gf vanilla extract
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1/2 tablespoon ginger
1 tsp nutmeg
Glaze:
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 tablespoon almond milk
1/2 tsp vanilla
Apple topping:
One apple peeled and diced
1 tablespoon stevia ( or sugar)
Cinnamon and nutmeg to taste
1/2 tablespoon butter
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Butter or oil a bundt pan and set aside.
3. In a small bowl prepare your apple filling.
4. In a large bowl begin to beat your eggs until light yellow about five minutes.
5. Add your sugar and continue to beat on high.
6. Add your butter and mix until creamy.
7. Add yogurt and beat three to five minutes.
8. Add in your banana and beat until mixed.
9. Add spices , baking soda, salt and baking powder to oat mixture.
10. Add oat flour one cup at a time and beat until entirely combined.
11. Throw in some of the apple filling mixture into the bundt pan. Pour half of the mixture on top. Add the remaining apple filling on top of the poured batter in the bundt pan.Pour the remaining batter on top of the apples.
12. Bake on center rack for about one hour or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove from bundt pan and allow to cool entirely. While cooling dice your apple and begin to bake mixture over medium heat for 5 minutes or until apples are soft.
Prepare your glaze and pour over your cake. I do this to make the top nice and sticky for the apples to get a nice hold.
Pour your apples over the top of the cake and just smell the aroma. Amazing.
I am not joking when I say this cake was made three times this week. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. It's just that good!
