INVISIBLE APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• Place a piece of parchment paper at the bottom of a 6-inch springform pan and grease sides and paper lightly. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• With a stand or electric mixer, beat the eggs and the sugar for about 3 minutes or until fluffy. Add the melted butter, the milk and vanilla, and mix till combined.
• Mix the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix until just combined.
• Cut the apples in quarters and with a mandolin slice each piece into 1/8 in (3 mm) thick slices. Very gently coat the apples with batter with a silicone spatula, ensuring each slice is coated but without breaking the apple slice.
• Pour batter gently and evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle sliced almonds on top.
• Bake in the oven for 60 minutes or until set. If the almonds brown to fast cover loosely with aluminium foil. Cool cake completely in the pan. When cooled remove the pan and dust with icing sugar before serving.

INVISIBLE APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• Peel the apples and slice very thinly, about 2 mm thick. Please see notes above for method to slice the apples.
• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8 inch by 4 inch baking loaf pan with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until pale yellow. Add the milk and melted butter and mix until smooth.
• Sift in the flour. You want to sift it in to keep the batter light. If you do not have a flour sifter, this can easily be done with a mesh strainer. Add about third of the flour into the strainer. Place strainer directly above the bowl with the batter and tap the side of the strainer against your palm, letting the flour sift through into the bowl. Repeat with remaining flour. Whisk the batter until smooth.
• Add about half the sliced apples to the batter. Do your best to separate any slices stuck together before adding. Use a rubber spatula to stir apples until they are all coated with batter. Add in remaining apples and stir and coat until all apples are thinly coated in batter.
• Spoon the apples into parchment paper-lined loaf pan. Try your best to make the apples all face the same way. Pour leftover batter over cake. Use spatula to scrape bowl to get every last bit of the leftover cake batter into your loaf pan.
• Sprinkle almonds over top of cake.
• Place loaf pan into the middle section of your oven and bake for 40 minutes. Cover top of cake lightly with a foil tent and bake another 10-20 minutes or until cake is done. To check if cake is done, stick a toothpick into the cake batter and the batter should no longer be liquid. Baking time can vary depending on the amount of apples you used and how much moisture was in the apples.
• Let cake cool to room temperature. Place into fridge to set overnight.
• Right before serving, remove cake from fridge. Top with powdered sugar. Use a sharp knife to slice cake.

INVISIBLE APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• Line the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 400 F. (regular bake/not fan assisted) **If your springform pan is prone to leaking (they often warp and don't form a tight seal) or if you just want to make sure there is no leaking of the thin batter, wrap the outside, bottom of the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Before you start the batter, melt the butter in saucepan or microwaveable bowl just until melted and set aside to cool while you start the batter.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs with the sugar and vanilla until very light and fluffy ,about 3 minutes. (**Make sure the melted butter is not hot when added to the batter or it will cook the eggs and make a lumpy batter! If you feel the butter is still too warm, mix it with the cold milk to cool it further, then add to the batter.) Add the cooled, melted butter and the milk to the egg mixture and mix well to combine.
• Sift or whisk together the flour and baking powder in a bowl, then sprinkle the flour mixture over the egg mixture. Mix just until combined.
• Quarter the peeled apples and remove the core. Use a mandolin to slice each apple quarter into thin slices. Add the apple slices to the batter as you go regularly (don't wait until you've done them all or they will start to brown. Push the apples into the batter so they are covered). Reserve the last handful of apple slices to scatter on top of the batter.
• Gently stir the apples in the batter to ensure all apples are well coated. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared springform pan and then scatter the reserved apple slices randomly over-top. *Adjust any apples that may be sticking up into a someone flat surface, as apples sticking up higher have a tendency to over-brown.
• Place the springform pan on a baking sheet (in case of leaks) and bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until set. If desired, you can turn on the broiler for a minute to brown up the top of the cake.
• Remove cake from oven and leave in the pan to cool. Run knife around edges and remove outer springform pan ring. Enjoy right away, or cover and refrigerate to enjoy later. You can serve cold from the fridge or let it come to room temperature before serving. You can also re-warm slightly in the microwave, if you like.
• Enjoy slightly warm, at room temperature or cold from the fridge dusted with icing sugar, if you like, or add a dollop of creme fraiche, whipped cream or ice cream on top.

INVISIBLE APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Start with the streusel. Add the flour and xylitol (or sugar) in a bowl and mix. Add the cold butter in small pieces to the mix and rub everything between your fingers until you get nice streusel in various sizes. Add the sliced almonds and mix in. Place in the fridge until needed.
• 2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a loaf tin (about 9×4.5 inches) and line with some baking parchment - it should overlap the edges of the baking tin. That will help you to lift the cake out of the tin when baked. Set aside. Melt the butter and let cool down a bit.
• 3. Add the eggs and xylitol (or sugar) in a large bowl and mix until well combined and foamy. Add the flour and cinnamon and mix until well combined. Add the milk and mix in. Add the melted butter and mix in. Set aside.
• 4. Wash and peel the apples. Cut into quarters and remove the core. Slice the apples thinly and place them in the batter - be careful and try not to break the apple slices. The apple slices should be coated with the batter completely. Place the apple slices in an orderly fashion in the prepared baking tin. Try to get even layers of apple slices - the more clean layers you can get the better. Sprinkle the streusel on top of the cake and bake for about 40 minutes. If the streusel or sliced almonds get too dark, cover with some aluminum foil towards the end of the baking time. Take out of the oven and let cool down completely. Place the cake in the fridge for about 2 hours before serving and slicing.

Steps:

• To make the crumble: Place the flour and almond meal in a mixing bowl. Add cold diced butter into the bowl. Combine the butter with the flour and almond meal by squish and rubbing together with your fingertips to create a crumble or breadcrumb like texture.
• Wrap the crumble mix with cling film and keep refrigerated until needed.
• Prepare the baking tin by spreading a little unsalted butter thinly around the pan, then dust with about ½ tbsp. of caster sugar. Line with 8 x 36 cm baking paper strip along the edges of the pan.

• Melt the butter and set aside.
• Place the egg and sugar in a large mixing bowl and combine.

• Slice the apples thinly (3 - 4 mm) and add them carefully into the mixture.
• Coat the apple slices with the cake batter using a spatula in a gentle folding motion. Make sure not to break the apple slices into smaller pieces.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared tin, lining up the apple slices in the same direction (this will make the cut surface look pretty for presentation).
• Sprinkle the crumble over the cake and bake it for about 40 minutes.
• One cooked, take the cake out of the tin and let it cool down for a few minutes.
• Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing the cake to allow the cake to cool completely.
