Spiced Apple Almond Cake
October 13, 2012
This moist apple cake is perfect for snack and breakfast. Baking this cake is a nice treat as the mixture of the nutty and caramelized flavors from the almond meal and cane sugar makes the entire kitchen smell so good. You can see I used one egg for this cake. I’m planning to use another 1/4 cup of apple sauce to replace the egg to make this cake vegan. I’ll let you know if that works.

ごろごろりんご入りアーモンドケーキ
２０１２年１０月１３日
太めにスライスしたりんごがごろごろっと入ったケーキ！
小麦粉と一緒にアーモンド粉が入って、しかも、さとうきび糖入り。
焼いているとなんとも香ばしい匂いがキッチン中に広がりま～す。
オレンジジュースが入っているせいか、しっとりした焼き上がりにたっぷりのりんごが美味しいです。
シナモンも入って、秋にぴったり。
コーヒーとも、紅茶とも、う～ん、多分緑茶でも、あいそう。
おやつはもちろん、朝食にもいけます。
