Scale

Cake Ingredients

  • 200g Skyr (Icelandic yoghurt)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 20g Cornstarch (2 tbsp)
  • 3 tbsp Erythritol (or preferred sweetener)
  • 1–2 small Apples, chopped
  • Cinnamon, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) to prepare for baking the cake evenly.
  2. Prepare Apples: Wash, core, and chop 1 to 2 small apples into small pieces to incorporate into the batter for texture and flavor.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the skyr (Icelandic yoghurt) and eggs until smooth and well combined.
  4. Add Sweetener and Cinnamon: Stir in the erythritol and cinnamon to the wet mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed to infuse sweetness and spice.
  5. Incorporate Cornstarch: Gradually add the cornstarch to the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly to form the cake batter without lumps.
  6. Fold in Apples: Gently fold the chopped apples into the batter, spreading them evenly throughout the mixture.
  7. Pour Batter into Pan: Grease a suitable cake pan or line it with parchment paper, then pour the batter evenly into the pan.
  8. Bake the Cake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool Before Serving: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For best results, use firm, tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice balanced flavor.
  • You can substitute erythritol with other sugar-free sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit according to taste.
  • Check the cake at 25 minutes as ovens vary; avoid over-baking to maintain moistness.
  • This cake keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Optional: dust with cinnamon or powdered erythritol before serving for extra flavor.
