Recipe For Buckwheat Apple Cake
This one surprised me, as it was so tasty but super filling too, it gave me energy for hours, it must have been the mix of the heavy buckwheat flour along with all the pectin from the apples.
Ingredients:
Apple Mixture
4 small cooking apples, sliced thinly
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
½ teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon honey
Dry Cake Mixture
1 ½ cups buckwheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
Wet Cake Mixture
50gm butter, melted
2 eggs, whisked
1 cup apple sauce
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
1 tablespoon honey
Topping
1 apple, thinly sliced into moons
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
Combine all the apple mixture ingredients, and let it sit to absorb all the beautiful spices and flavours. Meanwhile mix the dry ingredients together. In another bowl combine all the wet ingredients with an electric whisk, beat until it is nice and smooth, fold in the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until nice and smooth.
You can now add the apple mixture to the cake batter and combine well.
Pour into a greased cake tin, now you can lay out the top layer of apples and sprinkle with cinnamon.
Pop in the oven at 220C for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
Serve with coconut yoghurt or good quality crème fresh. I had some of the cake with clotted cream, which reminded me of endless summers going out for tea with my Grandmother. Call it emotional eating, but the food does arouse such perfect memories, and it is only once a year for me. With this recipe, it’s guilt free and satisfying, eating should always be guilt free.
Enjoy, and please share some of your favourite childhood recipes.
