Apple Almond Cake

Cut a parchment circle

Fold a sheet of parchment that is larger than your round pan in half like a book, then fold it in half again from top to bottom. Keeping the folded sides together, fold the rectangle into a triangle. Repeat to make a thinner triangle, keeping the folded sides together again. You should have a long wedge shape, similar to a tie. Invert your pan, then take the point of the triangle and hold it in the center of the pan. Cut the parchment at the outside edge of the pan. Unfold the paper to reveal the parchment circle.

Make the topping

Combine the slivered almonds, sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and stir until evenly mixed. Set the topping aside.

¼ cup blanched, slivered almonds

1 tablespoon sugar

small bowl

measuring cups

measuring spoons

spatula

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Peel, core and grate the apple

Use a vegetable peeler or paring knife to peel the apple. Discard the peel. Place the base of an apple on the chopping board. To make the first cut, start with the knife blade slightly offset from the stem, about ¼”, and slice down. Repeat on the other 3 sides to core the apple. Using the large holes on a box grater, grate the apple pieces. You should have about ¾ cup. You can julienne the apple instead of grating it.

Combine the dry ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk the almond flour, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and salt together.

1½ cups almond flour

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon ground cardamom

¾ teaspoon salt

large bowl

whisk

Combine the wet ingredients

In a medium bowl, mix the egg yolks, honey and oil until combined.

3 large egg yolks

¼ cup honey

2 tablespoons canola oil

liquid measuring cup

Mix the wet and dry ingredients

Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir in the grated apple and set aside.

Whip the egg whites

In a medium bowl with a hand-held mixer, or a stand mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

3 large egg whites

hand mixer

Add whipped whites

With a spatula, gently fold ⅓ of the egg whites into the batter, rotating the bowl as you fold. Add the remaining whites to the cake batter and fold them in, working gently but quickly. Continue to fold and turn the bowl until the whites are fully incorporated into the batter.

Pour the cake batter into the pan

Scrape the cake batter into the greased pan with the spatula and smooth the top. Tap the pan gently on the counter to break any large air bubbles.

Add the topping

Sprinkle the topping evenly over the cake batter.
