Recipe by Adelaide’s Finest
A warmly spiced, gluten-free apple cake that’s perfect for a cosy dessert or afternoon treat.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups gluten-free flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup Royal Gala apples, sliced
- Dash of cinnamon
- 1/3 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 eggs
- Connoisseur Ice Cream of choice to serve
Method:
- In a small bowl, combine the sliced Royal Gala apples with a dash of cinnamon. Set aside to absorb the flavour while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, coconut flour, baking powder and cinnamon (to your liking).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, melted coconut oil, honey, eggs, apple cider vinegar and vanilla essence until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Set aside some apple slices for decorating. Gently fold in the cinnamon-coated apple slices, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Decorate the bottom of the pan with apples and pour the batter into a greased or lined cake tin. Bake at 175°C for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the centre.
- Let the cake cool before serving. Add a dash of cinnamon over the cake if preferred and serve with a scoop of Connoisseur ice cream.
