Ingredients
- 1 large Apple
- 50 grams Almonds
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Wash and core the apple, then finely chop it into small, even pieces.
Step 2
Place the chopped apple in a bowl and toss with the fresh lemon juice to prevent browning.
Step 3
Roughly chop the almonds and lightly toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and allow them to cool slightly.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon, unsweetened almond butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 5
Combine the chopped apple and toasted almonds in a medium mixing bowl. Gently fold in the almond butter mixture until the apples and almonds are well coated.
Step 6
Spread the topping evenly over your cooled cake, pressing gently to help it adhere.
Step 7
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Bring to room temperature before serving if refrigerated.
