Ingredients

• 150 grams all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 100 grams unsalted apple sauce
• 100 grams sugar
• 60 milliliters low-fat milk
• 2 egg whites
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 medium apples, peeled and thinly sliced
• 40 grams rolled oats
• 20 grams light brown sugar
• 20 grams whole wheat flour
• 20 grams cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk the unsalted apple sauce and sugar until well combined. Add the low-fat milk, egg whites, and vanilla extract, and whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold the thinly sliced apples into the batter until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

In a small bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining the rolled oats, light brown sugar, and whole wheat flour. Mix in the cold unsalted butter cubes using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 8

Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake batter.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the topping is golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve the cake warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Low Fat Apple Crumble Cake!
