Delight in my Apple Cake, a moist and flavourful dessert packed with tender, Cinnamon-spiced Apples. With its soft texture and warm, comforting flavours, this cake is perfect for any occasion, from a cozy dessert to a sweet afternoon treat.

You will need:

Wet Ingredients

• 250g of Plant Milk (Soy, Almond, Oat)

• 150g of Sugar plus 2 tbsp to sprinkle on top

• 50g of Vegetable Oil (Sunflower Oil, or melted Vegan Butter)

Dry Ingredients

• 300g of Plain Flour

• 16g of Baking Powder

• 6g of Cinnamon or 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract with wet ingredients

• 1 pinch salt

• 3 - 4 Medium Apples (about 6 ounces or 170 grams per whole Apple – 2 Apples for the filling and 1 to 2 Apples for the top)

Method:

1. Oil the sides of your pan and dust them with flour. Line the bottom with Parchment Paper.

   Preheat the oven to 360°F or 180°C.

2. To a medium Bowl, add the wet ingredients: Plant Milk, Oil, and Sugar. Whisk to combine.

3. Sift in the dry ingredients: Flour, Baking Powder, Cinnamon, and a pinch of Salt.

4. Whisk with a Hand Mixer for a few seconds till you have a smooth and thick Cake batter.

   Do not over-mix, or the cake will turn out gummy.

   You can also stir the batter with a whisk or a silicon spatula.

5. Add small Apple pieces from 2 Apples (about 11 ounces or 300 grams of Apple chunks).

   Apples should be cored and seeds removed. You can keep the peel on.

6. Fold in with a spatula until the Apple pieces are well incorporated into the batter, then pour it into the cake tin.

7. Cover the top of the cake with thin Apple slices in a circular pattern, overlapping the slices a bit.

8. Finally, sprinkle the Apples with 2 tbsp of Sugar.

9. Bake the cake at 360°F or 180°C for 55 minutes to 1 hour on the center rack of the oven.

   Take out of the oven and let cool down for about 1 hour.

   Then sprinkle with some Powdered Sugar if you want.

   TIP: bake on a baking rack, not on a baking tray, because the tray will get too hot and might overcook the base of the cake.
