I saw this recipe in my cookbook and thought it would taste just like my mom's Nobby Apple Cake but decided to try it out anyway. I loved that it is a 100% dairy-free recipe on it's own......no substitutes or changes needed. LOVE! So, the batter and final cake did look just like the nobby cake but it tasted nothing like it at all. I love my mom's nobby cake but this was really really good too. It was like an apple brownie or something. It had a really lovely sweetness about it. It was fantastic to nibble on all day but because there were so many apple bits it did get a bit soggy the next day. (But a quick warm up in the oven and it was great with the coffee:)
Apple Nut Torte
The New York Times International Cookbook
Craig Claiborne
1 egg
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup chopped, peeled, cored apples, preferably on the tart side
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tsp vanilla
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Beat the egg with an electric beater until light and lemon colored. Gradually beat in the sugar.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt and fold into the egg mixture. Stir in apples, walnuts, and vanilla. (dough is stiff...like a paste almost)
Spray the inside of an 8 X 8 in square pan with non-stick spray. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm.
