Low Fat Apple Cake


Serves 8 / Prep time 20mins / Oven time 35mins
[source: www.aseasyasapplepie.com]

 INGREDIENTS

550 g apples (approx. 3 apples), thinly sliced
juice of 1 lemon
zest of 1 lemon (optional – can use ½ of zest of a whole lemon for discreet lemon taste)
2 eggs 
90 g granulated sugar 
a pinch of salt 
110g plain four 
2 t baking powder 
75ml low fat milk (2%) 

Optional:
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar to sprinkle on top (pre-oven)
• powdered sugar (only once cake has cooled down)
• cinnamon powder (optional)

METHOD
1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C.
2. Grease and flour a 26 cm (9 ½ inches) pan and set aside.
3. Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place the slices in a bowl with the lemon juice, toss to coat, and set aside. [note: keep one apple from the others – to be used for topping] 
4. Put the eggs, sugar, grated lemon zest, and salt in a bowl, and beat until thick and creamy.
5. Add the flour, baking powder, milk, and mix on low speed until combined.
6. Using a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon, fold in 2/3rds of the apples into the batter.
7. Pour the batter in the prepared pan.
8. Arrange the remaining apple slices, flat-side down, over the top. Optional: Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sugar.
9. Bake the apple cake for approximately 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the top is golden brown.
10. Cool completely, then dust the cake with powdered sugar just before serving.
11. 😊

NOTE
Store it in an airtight container in a cool place for 2 to 3 days, or in the fridge for up to 5 days. In warm climates, it is better to store it in the fridge.
