ingredients

  • 225 gram Bramley or Granny Smith apples, peeled cored and diced

ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 150 gram ground almonds
  • 160 gram self-raising flour, sifted
  • 70 gram coconut su, plus 1 tbsp for topping
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder, sifted
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of Himalayan salt
  • 100 gram sultanas

ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 240 milliliter almond milk
  • 120 milliliter sunflower oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 180°c.

  • Step 2

    Lightly grease a 20cm round cake tin with sunflower oil and line the base with parchment paper.

  • Step 3

    Place all the dry ingredients except the sultanas into a large mixing bowl and stir them together until there are no lumps. Add the sultanas and diced apples to the bowl, stirring well to coat them in the dry ingredients.

  • Step 4

    In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients together until well combined. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until everything is well incorporated.

  • Step 5

    Pour the batter into your prepared tin and gently level it out. Sprinkle over the tablespoon of coconut sugar and bake the cake in the preheated oven on a baking tray for 45 minutes, or until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.

  • Step 6

    Leave in the tin for 10 minutes to cool and then carefully turn the cake out and leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
