Apple Cinnamon Crumb Cake ~Have a GRAIN Holiday

I was so excited when Hodgson Mill asked me to create a recipe for their 25 Days of Grain Holiday Sweepstakes.  They sent me a variety of flours to try and I got straight to work.  I love incorporating new products into my baking and am very pleased with how this Apple Cinnamon Crumb Cake turned out.  This is a healthy cake that uses applesauce, white whole wheat flour, whole wheat pastry flour and organic white flour.  This is a very simple recipe and it comes together in no time at all…the perfect way to celebrate the holiday!

 

1/2 C applesauce

1/2 C sugar

2 eggs

2/3 C sour cream (or greek yogurt)

2 tsp. vanilla

1/2 C Hodgson Mill white whole wheat flour

1 C Hodgson Mill whole wheat pastry flour

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

2 tsp. baking powder

2 medium apples (peeled, seeded and diced)

1/2 C Hodgson Mill organic white flour

1/4 C brown sugar

1/2 C oats

1/4 C cold butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees; grease a 10″ springform pan and set aside.

Whisk together the applesauce, sugar, eggs, sour cream and vanilla.

Pour into prepared pan; set aside.

Mix together the white flour, brown sugar and oats; cut in the butter until crumbly.

 Evenly spread on top of the cake batter.

Bake for 30-35  minutes; until golden brown around the edges.

Cool completely in the pan then remove.

 

Slice, serve and enjoy!
