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.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Haddar Baking Powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, scant amount

  • 6 apples, peeled and sliced thinly

Optional Streusel

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • handful chopped almonds (optional)

Optional Glaze

  • 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar

  • 1 teaspoon water

Directions

Prepare the Flan

1.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

2.

Beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla until they are light.

3.

Add the applesauce and mix well.

4.

Add the water, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix just until combined.

5.

Spread half the batter in a thin layer in a 10-inch springform pan sprayed with oil or baking spray.

6.

Arrange half of the apple slices over the batter.

7.

Top with the remaining batter. Arrange the remaining apple slices on top.

8.

Bake for 40 minutes, or until done. Do not overbake.

9.

If using a streusel topping, mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts and sprinkle this evenly over the apples before baking.

Tips:

This cake freezes well. It actually becomes moister when frozen.

Notes:

2 tablespoons soy milk or apple juice may be substituted for water.

Prepare the Flan

Serves 12-14.

Optional Glaze

1.

If you wish to glaze the cake, combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle this over the cooled cake.

Notes:

1/8 teaspoon almond flavoring may be substituted for the vanilla.
