My Favorite Vegan Apple Cake

This apple cake is far from being low-fat and by no means is low in carbohydrates. But hey, why not? Combining the freshest, highest quality ingredients boosts its nutrient content and makes it a great source of Omega-3s and fiber.

The aroma of freshly baked apples and cinnamon lingers around the house for hours and sets that special ambiance for a cozy lazy day.

And the best part is that with properly designed diet plan you can fit a slice in your daily macros perfectly!

So here you go, enjoy and indulge!

To make this delectable guy, you will need:

3 medium size apples

1/4 cup raw coconut oil

5 Tbsp ground flaxseed

1/2 cup maple syrup

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 cup whole grain wheat flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 365F.

Soak ground flaxseed in maple syrup for about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, thinly slice the apples so you can easily layer it.

Melt coconut oil and add it to the flaxseed mixture along with brown sugar; blend really well (I use a hand mixer). Add flour, mix well.

Add unsweetened vanilla almond milk to reach semi-pourable consistency (it might require a little more than 1/2 cup).

Butter (raw coconut oil) and flour 9" cake pan and layer the apples; sprinkle with cinnamon. Pour the mixture over the apples, be sure to scrape the sides of the bowl.

Bake for about 45 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Let it cool and ENJOY!
