Follow these steps
-
Preheat oven to 190 C / 375 F.
-
Prepare a springform pan (about 22 cm in diameter) by placing parchment paper onto the bottom of the pan and greasing the edges.
-
Cut 500 grams apples into wedges. You don’t need to peel the apples or take the core away.
-
Bake the apples on a baking sheet for 20 minutes or until they have softened.
-
Assemble the Ankarsrum Assistent with the Strainer and strain the apple wedges into a thick puree. With 500 grams apples you should have about 250 grams apple puree.
-
Mix together the dry ingredients: the flour, almond meal, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.
-
Assemble the Ankarsrum Assistent with the bowl and the whisk.
-
Whisk the softened butter, granulated and light brown sugar on medium speed until you have a fluffy cream, for about 1 minute. Add the apple puree and keep on whisking on medium speed for about 30 sec.
-
Add the dry ingredients to the bowl little by little mixing on low speed for about 1 minute. Do not over mix the batter.
-
Take about 50 grams of the cake batter separately into a bowl and mix it with soft butter and almond flakes.
-
Spread the rest of the batter evenly into the prepared springform pan and spread the almond flake batter on top.
-
Bake the apple cake in the oven for about 25 minutes or until it is baked evenly. You can test the cake with a toothpick. If a lot of batter sticks to the toothpick, bake for another few minutes. The cake is supposed to be fudgy, smooth and soft when baked.
-
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before removing it.
-
Wash and dry the Ankarsrum Assistant bowl and whisks and pour the dairy-free vanilla sauce into the clean bowl.
-
Whisk the vanilla sauce on medium speed until fluffy and creamy, for about 1 minute.
-
Enjoy the cake with the fluffy vanilla sauce.
