Almond Cake with Warm Apple Topping
Ingredient Highlights
Almond flour is a gluten-free flour made by grinding almonds after the skin has been removed. It’s softer and finer than almond meal which is made by grinding almonds with the skin left on.
Apple Cider Vinegar is full of enzymes and good bacteria. It contains acetic acid, which has been shown to help lower blood pressure.
Apples cleanse the colon of bacteria, viruses, yeast, and mold. They also support the liver, digestive tract function, and brain health.
Cinnamon is a good ally in fighting respiratory infections due to its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and expectorant properties.
Coconut oil provides a boost of healthy fat that can energize and satiate. It is a strong antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial food.
Egg yolks are rich in nutrients including iron and vitamins A, D, E, and K, but it’s the white that provides the most protein. An average-size egg contains around 6-7 grams of protein with around 4 grams coming from the egg white.
Lakanto is a zero-glycemic, zero-calorie blend of monk fruit and erythritol that makes an excellent sugar substitute for low-carb recipes.
Be sure to use lemon zest from organic lemons to avoid pesticide exposure.
Nutmeg has a warm sweet flavor and boasts a variety of impressive health benefits. It’s rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. Animal studies show it may help boost mood, enhance blood sugar control, and reduce risk factors for heart disease.

Sharon, please check your anger at the door. You would feel better! Katrina, thanks for sharing your grace. Great cake too!
You didn't even show the FINISHED Almond Cake picture. So I guess we'll just have to picture in our heads what this cake MIGHT look like done!!!! Stupidest thing is giving a recipe WITHOUT a picture of the FINISHED Cake!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guess I won't be making this one!!!!!!
Actually, I would like to say that you don’t need to be so rude! Bake the cake, take a picture and you can post it for everyone to see!
Hi Sharon! I hear your frustration. When I took the picture of the cake and apple topping together (pictured above), the cake blended in with the apple topping. It is difficult to see the distinction between the two as the cake is not thick and they are the same color. I appreciate your feedback.
Are there any substitutes for the Lankato - perhaps, just plain Monk fruit sweetener? If so, how much would be a suitable amount to substitute in this recipe?
I do not eat sugar alcohols.
Hi Pamela. That's a great question. I haven't tried it with other sweeteners. You could definitely try it, you just may need to adjust the amount of flour and liquids to get a good batter consistency. Keep us posted if you try it!
