- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cup almond milk
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup applesauce unsweetened
- ⅓ cup Greek yogurt 0%, no sugar added
- 2 large eggs
- 3 cups apples cored and diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium size bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Whisk to combine.
- In a large bowl, add almond milk, honey, applesauce, Greek yogurt and eggs. Whisk to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Using a spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until the flour mixture is incorporated. Do not overmix.
- Add diced apples to the batter. Use a spatula to gently fold in the apples.
- Pour batter into prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread batter to the edges of the pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Let cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Use the sides of the parchment paper to remove the cake from the pan. Let cake cool for 20 more minutes and then cut cake into 24 square pieces. Enjoy!
Notes
Make sure the honey is runny before adding it to the wet ingredients. Older honey has the tendency to crystalize and become thick. It will be difficult to whisk in the honey if it is crystalized and thick. Thick or crystalized honey can be put in the microwave for 20 seconds and it will quickly become runny!
