A tasty and nutritious dessert option, this Paleo Apple Cake is made with almond meal, coconut flour, and coconut sugar for sweetness. For anyone on a Paleo diet or searching for a cake without gluten or refined sugar, this is the ideal dessert.
Ingredients: 3 cups almond meal. 1/2 cup coconut flour. 1/2 cup coconut sugar. 1 tsp baking soda. 1 tsp ground cinnamon. 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg. 1/4 tsp salt. 4 large eggs. 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted. 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. 2 tsp vanilla extract. 2 cups diced apples preferably Granny Smith. 1/2 cup chopped walnuts optional.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Grease and line a 9-inch 23 cm round cake pan with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond meal, coconut flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Fold in the diced apples and chopped walnuts if using. Transfer the cake batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, slice and enjoy your delicious Paleo Apple Cake!
