Vegan Apple Cake

This Vegan Apple Cake is easy to make, moist and super delicious! Sweet fall apples and almond flour keeps it moist and the caramel-flavored coconut sugar all comes together so well in this vegan cake.

Ingredients for this Vegan Apple Cake:

• Almond milk, you can also use another vegan milk
• Apple cider vinegar, this mixed with the almond milk makes a vegan butter milk
• Coconut sugar, I love using coconut sugar for the slight caramel flavour. You can also use brown sugar.
• Almond flour, gives this vegan apple cake a hint of almond flavour and also adds extra moisture.
• All purpose flour, if you want a gluten free option use a gluten free 1:1 pastry flour
• Baking powder and baking soda, a mix of both makes for the best texture.
• Coconut oil, gives the dough that “buttery” feeling, but without the butter! Any neutral flavoured oil, like grape seed or sunflower oil, can also be used.
• Spices, I use cardamon and cinnamon because they go so well with the apple flavor
• Apples, there is a shedded apple inside the batter as well as a topping, maximum apple flavour here!

Measurements are in the recipe card at the bottom of this post

Instructions

Preheat the oven and grease a round baking pan with removable sides.

Mix the almond milk and apple cider vinegar and let it sit for about 10 minutes until it starts to curdle. Then add the melted coconut oil, sugar and shredded apple, stir well.

In a separate bowl, add all the flour, almond flour, spices, baking powder and baking soda and stir. Fold in the wet ingredients until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and top with sliced apples, slivered almonds and turbinado sugar. Bake for 40-45 minutes.

Let the cake cool completely before removing from the pan.
