Quick Apple Chocolate Cake with No Flour and No Milk

Quick Apple Chocolate Cake with No Flour and No Milk

A moist chocolate apple cake made with apples, eggs, and cocoa powder. Gluten-free, dairy-free, and without added sugar if vanilla extract is used instead of vanilla sugar.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium apples about 300–350 g whole
  • 2 eggs medium or large
  • 100 g unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or ¼ tsp ground vanilla
  • a little neutral oil or parchment paper for the pan

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F.
  • Line a small baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  • Wash, core, and chop the apples.
  • Blend the apples until smooth.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla, then blend again.
  • Add the cocoa powder in portions and blend until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool for at least 20–30 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Use sweet apples because there is no added sugar.
  • Use unsweetened baking cocoa, not drinking chocolate.
  • Do not overbake; the cake should stay moist.
  • For a milder chocolate flavor, use 70–80 g cocoa powder.
  • Let the cake cool completely before slicing.
