Ingredients
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 2 cups spelt or whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon cloves
- 1/2 cup vegan maple syrup
- 1/2 cup unrefined corn oil
- 1 cup diced apples, unpeeled (if organic)
- 1/3 cup (approx.) apple juice
Place dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Mix wet ingredients together and add to dry. Place in an 8" round, slightly greased, spring form pan.
Topping: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or nut of your choice) 1/2 tsp cinnamon 2 Tbsp rice syrup or maple syrup 1 tsp unrefined corn oil
Mix together and spread evenly over cake. (You may have to wet fingers to spread mixture evenly.)
Bake at 350F for 40-45 minutes. Cool and serve.
(This recipe works equally well with pears. Just add 1 tsp ginger to cake and 1/2 tsp ginger to topping.)
Instead of above topping, spread with favourite jam or apple butter and put nuts in cake.
