Almond Apple Cake Ingredients

• 1 c. all purpose flour
• ⅓ c. almond flour
• ½ c. light brown sugar
• 7 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• ½ c. milk
• 2 eggs
• ½ tsp. almond extract
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• ½ tsp. baking soda
• ½ tsp. nutmeg
• ½ tsp. cinnamon
• ¼ tsp. salt
• 2 medium sized apples peeled, cored and thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp. almond slices

How to Make Almond Apple Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Combine the all-purpose flour and almond flour in a bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, beat 7 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter and ½ cup of light brown sugar together until the mixture is slightly fluffy. You can use a stand mixer if you prefer. Add 2 eggs and stir until well incorporated. Mix in ½ teaspoon of almond extract.
4. Add half of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and gently stir with a spatula until fully incorporated. Add ½ cup of milk and stir a few more times, being careful not to overmix. Sift in the remaining flour mixture, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon of salt, then fold everything gently until a smooth batter forms.
5. Pour the batter into a greased and lined 9-inch circular baking pan. Spread the 2 thinly sliced apples on top of the batter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of almond slices. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
6. Let the cake cool to room temperature before enjoying.

Pro Tips For Making This Recipe

1. Pat the apple slices dry with paper towels to prevent excess moisture from affecting the cake’s texture.
2. Start checking the cake with a skewer at the 40-minute mark to prevent overbaking.
3. Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for a smoother batter and better texture.
