Almond apple cake

This Almond Apple Cake is a delightful dessert that combines the nutty flavor of almonds with the sweet tartness of apples. It's perfect for any occasion, whether you're serving it as a cozy after-dinner treat or bringing it to a festive gathering. With simple ingredients and easy-to-follow steps, you'll have a delicious homemade cake in no time.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
1/2 cup sugar
100g
2 eggs
100g
1/3 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
40g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1/2 cup almonds
60g
2 apples
320g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
2. Prepare the Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This can be done with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.
3. Add the Eggs:
Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Continue beating until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
4. Combine the Dry Ingredients:
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
5. Add the Almonds:
Fold in the finely chopped or ground almonds until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Prepare the Apples:
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. You can either fold the apple slices into the batter or arrange them on top of the batter in a decorative pattern after pouring it into the pan.
7. Assemble the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly. If you haven’t folded the apples into the batter, now arrange the apple slices on top in a circular pattern.
8. Bake:
Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
9. Cool:
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve:
Once the cake has cooled, slice and serve. This almond apple cake pairs wonderfully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Tips:

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before creaming it with sugar; this helps achieve a light and fluffy texture.

- Toast the almonds slightly before grinding them for a deeper, richer flavor.

- Use a mix of sweet and tart apples for a well-rounded taste. Granny Smith and Fuji apples work well together.

- Gently fold the flour into the batter to avoid overmixing, which can make the cake dense.

- Test the cake with a toothpick; it should come out clean when inserted in the center, indicating the cake is done.

This Almond Apple Cake is a simple yet elegant dessert that brings together the rich flavors of almonds and apples. Whether served warm with a scoop of ice cream or enjoyed on its own, it's sure to be a hit. Follow these tips for the best results and enjoy your homemade treat!
