This very low-fat apple flan is scrumptious. You can serve it for Kiddush, but it’s nice enough to serve for dessert. Everyone will appreciate a lighter, healthier cake.

Prepare the Flan
Serves 12-14.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).
-
Beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla until they are light.
-
Add the applesauce and mix well.
-
Add the water, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix just until combined.
-
Spread half the batter in a thin layer in a 10-inch springform pan sprayed with oil or baking spray.
-
Arrange half of the apple slices over the batter.
-
Top with the remaining batter. Arrange the remaining apple slices on top.
-
If using a streusel topping, mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts and sprinkle this evenly over the apples before baking.
-
Bake for 40 minutes, or until done. Do not overbake.
Note:
2 tablespoons soy milk or apple juice may be substituted for water.
Tip:
This cake freezes well. It actually becomes moister when frozen.
Optional Glaze
-
If you wish to glaze the cake, combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle this over the cooled cake.
Note:
1/8 teaspoon almond flavoring may be substituted for the vanilla.
