Apple cake with or without ice cream is a hit no matter the season, but it's especially good in the fall. At least if you're lucky enough to have an apple tree in your garden!
Here is a gluten-free version, you can of course use regular wheat flour. I used 200 grams of gluten-free fine wheat flour and 50 grams of chickpea flour. A traditional recipe is to take equal amounts of butter, wheat flour and sugar! I have started baking all cakes with less sugar than what is written in the recipes, including my own It's going great!
This is what you need:
150 gr room temperature butter
150 g sugar
250 gr flour of your choice
½ teaspoon baking powder
3 apples in boats
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
10-15 coarsely chopped almonds
Procedure:
- Peel the apples, cut into thin slices and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
- Beat butter and sugar until slightly fluffy. Add flour and baking powder. Mix well.
- Pour the mixture into a greased tin, garnish with apple wedges and chopped almonds.
- Bake for 25 minutes at 180 degrees. Serve with or without ice cream and a delicious cup of coffee.
HAPPY WEEKEND!
