• 4 granny smith apples
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup rice flower
• 1/2 tsp xantham gum

• 4 eggs

Instructions

1. Start by peeling, coring, and cutting up the apples into 1 inch pieces
2. Place them into a big bowl and sprinkle cinnamon over the top
3. Mix the apples and cinnamon until all the apples have a light coating
4. Preheat your oven to 350 F (175 C)
5. In another bowl beat the eggs
6. Add in the sugar and mix until all the sugar is dissolved
7. Mix in the vanilla
8. Add in a pinch of salt
9. Sift in the flour and stir until everything is combined (It should look like pancake mix!) Note: if you're using rice flour, combine your flour and xantham gum together before adding it into the wet ingredients.
10. Lightly grease a baking dish
11. Scoop a little bit of the cake mix into the dish
12. Add all the apples
13. Pour the rest of the cake mix over the apples
14. Let the mix settle in between all the apple pieces
15. Cook for 30-40 minutes
16. You can check if your cake is done by inserting a toothpick into the cake, if it comes out clean, you're done!
17. If you used a Bundt pan, use a spatula to pull the cake away from the sides of the pan
18. Let cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the pan (ask an adult for help with this)

Sounds delicious!
