Tried & Tested: Apple Cake

The very lovely and creative Quiltefia recommended this low calorie Apple Cake (click on the link to her blog for the recipe in Norwegian) and I can wholeheartedly support it!

It is simply delicious, very moist and rather light!
It doesn't contain as much butter as many other recipies I have used in the past, and you can always substitute sugar for Splenda.
I made one on Saturday with the plan to take it with me to a dinner party on Sunday. "Mysteriously", somehow most of it was "gone" before I knew it and whatever was remaining didn't look like much to bring to the dinner party so a second one was quickly made ;-)

Here is my take on her recipe:

  • Beat 1 dl sugar with 3 eggs
  • Melt 85 grams butter and add 2 dl low fat yoghurt
  • Mix 250 grams of flour with 2 tsp of vanillasugar and 1 tsp of bakingpowder.
Combine it all well together and add to a greased tin.

Core, peel and cut up 4-5 apples which you put firmly into the batter.
I also added some chopped almonds and I think some raisins might be nice as well.
I gave the whole cake a good sprinkling of cinnamon before baking it on 185 degrees for about 25-30 mins

Yummy - another recipe worth keeping!!!

    Eplekake er alltid godt - og ikke dumt å spare noen kalorier:-)

    Den både så og hørtes grådig god ut! Selv er jeg så aldeles vanvittig mett etter jordskokksuppe (!) hos naboen i dag. Hvem skulle trodd at en stakkars jordskokk, ettrfulgt av gresskargrateng, var så ekstremt mettende! Dermed kan jeg lese andres matopplevelser uten å bli gal av sult, slik jeg ofte pleier. En ny opplevelse, mao!

    Fin kveld til deg! Det er gjerne kake igjen? ;)

    Den så vanvittig god ut! :o)

    Hørtes så hyggelig ut med morgenkaffe for mødre. :o) En super måte å bli mer kjent på. Skal ta med meg det som et forslag på neste foreldremøte! :o)

    (PS! Min datter har forlengst bestemt seg for å jobbe innen medisin, og starter sine medisinstudier neste år)

    Ønsker deg en deilig tirsdag!

    Klem,
    Anette Willemine
