Ingredients
For the Cake
** 6 Tbsp butter
** 1/2 Cup Erythritol sweetener (use Swerve or Pyure)
** 2 eggs
** 1 tsp vanilla extract
** 1 tsp ground cinnamon
** pinch of salt
** 1 cup Almond flour
** 1/3 cup coconut flour
** 2 tsp baking powder
** 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
** 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
For the apple streusel layer:
** 3 Tbsp butter
** 1 cup granny smith apples, peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch piees
** 1/4 cup Erythritol sweetener (I use Swerve or Pyure)
** 1 tsp ground cinnamon
** 3/4 cup almond flour
** 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
** pinch of salt
Instructions
To make the cake layer:
1. Cream the butter and sweetnener together until smooth and fluffy.
2. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each, then add the vanilla extract.
3. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking powder, xanthan gum and salt and mix well.
4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix.
5. Pour in the almond milk and mix until just blended.
6. Spread the batter into a greased 9x9 baking pan.
To make the apple streusel layer:
1. Melt the butter in a medium skillet.
2. Add the apples, cinnamon and sweetener and cook for 2 minutes
3. Remove from the heat and stir in the almond flour, pinch of salt and chopped walnuts. Stir well until crumbly dough forms.
4. Spoon the topping evenly over the cake batter and spread out.
5. Bake the cake in a 375 degree oven for 35 minutes. If you find the topping getting too brown, cover it loosely with parchment or aluminum foil for the final 10 minutes.
6. Remove from the oven and cool before slicing into 3 inch sqares.
7. Alternatively, you can bake these in 9 large muffin cups for about 20 minutes at 375 degrees (F) or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
