Apple Cake With Brown Butter

Across all my social media platforms I post only my best recipes, those which I have made many times and know taste good. Some of those I am madly in love with, like this apple cake with brown butter. I have made this cake too many times this year. I have made it with regular flour, even oat flour and it turns out perfect every time.

This apple cake recipe is from Danielle Alvarez. I have discovered her, in the beginning of this year, through Emiko Davies. Emiko posted the same apple cake on her Instagram. It looked irresistible and I had to try it!

For this apple cake gluten free or apple cake with buckwheat flour you can use any flour I mentioned above. But earthy buckwheat flour in combination with nutty butter and caramelly sugar is just heavenly!

This apple cake easy recipe is like the name says, so easy to make. It does take some time to bake. But as it bakes, your house will start to smell like autumn at its best!

Because of the almond flour, butter and all the fruit, this apple cake with almond flour is very moist. It is impossible to leave alone so I suggest having some friends over when you make it!

Original recipe for this apple cake with cinnamon, calls for all spice but since I can´t get a hold of it easy I only used cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. So, feel free to experiment with the spices! I also doubled the amount of cinnamon, because you can never have enough, right?!

If you end up making this apple cake with brown butter, leave me a comment and let me know or tag me on Instagram. I would love to see how you did!
