Apple Spice Cake with Maple

Apple Spice Cake with Maple combines chopped apples with warm spices, sweetened by pure maple syrup and brown rice syrup, and moistened with coconut oil. The batter is folded gently to keep the texture tender and baked into round cakes with a soft crumb. This cake brings cozy autumn flavors with a balance of sweetness and subtle spice, suitable for dessert or an afternoon treat.

Description

The Apple Spice Cake with Maple uses coconut oil as the fat base, adding moisture and a slight richness. Sweeteners include pure maple syrup and brown rice syrup, lending natural sweetness and a depth of flavor. Eggs and vanilla extract bind and flavor the batter. Organic cake flour along with baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt create the light cake structure and spice profile. Chopped apples folded in add bursts of fruit and texture throughout.

The batter is divided between two buttered 8-inch round pans and baked at 325°F until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, resulting in a tender crumb with moist apple pieces. The cake can be served warm or cooled with frosting as desired.
