Naughty but nice apple cake -- a happy medium

This cake walks the line between wholesome and naughty. It is sweetened with honey, but not a lot, and it is mostly made with almond flour. It does use a tiny bit of whole grain kamut flour. The result is a delicious cake that we brought to a backyard pot luck dinner up the street. Super yummy.

1 1/2 cup water (hot)
1/4 cup butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup honey
2 eggs

1/2 tsp sea salt
3 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp ginger
1 tsp ground vanilla bean

2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup kamut flour
1/2 tsp baking soda

2 cups chopped apple -- I use royal gala (and organic -- and I leave the skin on)

coconut sugar to sprinkle on top


directions:

preheat the oven to 345
grease a rectangular glass baking dish

1. combine hot water and butter in a mixing bowl to melt the butter
2. mix in the honey
3. add the sea salt, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla bean (I probably threw in a little freshly ground black pepper for fun)
4. mix in the almond flour
5. add the eggs and the being soda
6. stir in the kamut flour very delicately
7. fold in the chopped apple
8. pour into the baking dish and sprinkle the top with coconut sugar

bake at 345 for 55 minutes
