Ingredients
- 200 grams Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 120 milliliters Unsweetened applesauce
- 60 milliliters Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 5
Peel, core, and grate the medium apple. Fold the grated apple into the batter to add natural sweetness and moisture.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Sprinkle the sliced almonds evenly over the surface of the batter.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the edges are golden brown.
Step 9
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Slice and serve as is or with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream, if desired.
