  2. In a large bowl, use a handheld electric mixer to beat together 1 1/2 cup coconut sugar and 1/2 cup melted coconut oil until well combined. Mix in 6 eggs (1 at a time), beating well after each one then beat in 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and 1/2 tsp almond extract.
  3. Add almond flour mixture and continue to mix on low speed until blended. Fold in chopped apples and pour cake batter into a greased 9" (8" will work as well) springform. Top with slivered almonds.
