Hi Guys,
On my weight loss journey, I have been on the pursuit to find recipes that are delicious and equally healthy. This weekend I created a healthy apple crumb cake inspired
The Ingredients are as follows:
FOR THE CAKE
- 3/4 Cups Brown Sugar
- 2 Medium Eggs
- 1 Cup All Purpose Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 Cup Greek Yogurt
- 1 Teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
- 2 Cups Apples, Peeled, Cored & Chopped
FOR THE TOPPING
- 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 3 Tablespoon Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 Tablespoon Butter, Softened
FOR THE APPLE SAUCE
- 3 Apples, Peeled, Cored & Chopped
- 1/2 Cup of Water
- 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 1/4 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1. Preheat Oven to 350F. Spray an 9*9 Baking Pan with butter, cooking spay or a little bit of oil.
2. For the cake:
- In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar and eggs and beat until mixed
- In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda and cinnamon.
- Gradually add dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and beat until combined
- Add the greek yogurt and vanilla extract.
- Add in the Apple Pieces in to the mixture, then pour the whole thing into the baking pan.
3. For the Topping:
- Combine topping ingredients in a small bowl and sprinkle topping over the cake mixture
4. Bake until golden brown, approximately 20-20 minutes, depending on your oven. Remove from the oven and let cool. Add the Apple Sauce to top off.
4. For the Apple Sauce:
- In a saucepan, combine Apples, Water, Brown Sugar and Cinnamon. Cover for about 15-20 minutes. Cover and cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until apples are soft. Allow to cool and top off your apple crumb cake with some apple sauce. (Applesauce Credit: Sarah's Applesauce)
