Dairy-free Apple Cake for Sunday Blues
A comforting, creamy, soft apple cake that will match your cuppa on a Sunday afternoon.
Equipment
- 22-cm Cake Tin
- Chef's Knife
- Mandoline (optional)
Ingredients
- 7 to 10 apples
- 3 medium eggs
- 200 g white sugar
- 200 g all purpose flour
- 100 g vegetable oil
- 100 g dairy-free/vegetable milk
- 16 g baking powder
- 1 lemon (juice and zest)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Start by turning the oven on at 180°C/355°F and by grating the lemon. Set zest aside. Peel and chop all the apples in quarters. Put aside on a bowl full of cold water and the lemon juice to prevent oxidation.
- Mix together the 3 eggs and sugar – you just need a fork for this, no mixer necessary. When they're well mixed, add flour, vegetable oil, milk, zest, and vanilla. Add the baking soda last.
- Go back to your apples and chop them very very finely. You can do so either with a chef's knife or with a mandoline, depending on what you have.
- Add 3/4 of the apples to the cake mix and whisk together softly. Add the remaining 1/4 of apples on top to create a circle if you want to look fancy. Add a sprinkle of brown sugar or cinnamon on top and put in the oven for 60 minutes.
