Gluten-free apple cake

 

Ingredients


  • 5 apples (peeled and diced into small chunks)

  • 5 eggs

  • 5 tbsp buckwheat or rice flour

  • ¼ tsp baking powder

  • 5 tbsp goat butter (softened)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ tsp Ceylon cinnamon


 

Instructions


  1. Prepare Your Tools: Preheat the oven to 170°C. Grease a baking tray with goat butter to prevent sticking.

  2. Blend Wet Ingredients: Combine the eggs, diced apples, vanilla extract, and softened goat butter in a mixing bowl. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and Ceylon cinnamon.

  4. Combine: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, blending until the batter is well incorporated.

  5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared tray and bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.

  6. Cool & Serve: Let the cake cool before serving.


    Serving Ideas


    • Classic Touch: For a traditional apple cake vibe, arrange thin apple slices on top of the batter before baking. After cooling, brush a light layer of apple jam for a shiny, professional finish.

    • Simple Elegance: Keep it fuss-free by sprinkling cinnamon on top and garnishing with fresh blueberries.
