Rye cake with apples, cinnamon, and stevia

This cake is the perfect solution for lovers of balanced desserts. The use of organic wholemeal rye flour Ekosem, stone-ground, gives the baked good its characteristic density and deep aroma. In combination with fresh apples, Ceylon cinnamon, and stevia, this dessert is not only delicious but also a lighter alternative to traditional sweets.

Ingredients:

• 120 grams of organic wholemeal rye flour Ekosem

• 100 grams red apples (1 medium apple)

• 60 grams melted butter

• 50 grams egg (1 piece)

• 30 grams fresh milk

• 20 grams powdered stevia

• 2 teaspoons Ceylon cinnamon

• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation:

1. Mixing the wet ingredients: In a deep bowl, combine the melted butter, egg, and fresh milk. Whisk well with a wire whisk until homogeneous.

2. Adding the dry ingredients: Start adding the dry ingredients (rye flour, stevia, cinnamon, baking soda, and baking powder) one by one to the wet mixture, stirring continuously. You should get a sticky and thick homogeneous mixture.

3. Preparation for baking: Line a small baking pan (approx. 20x10 cm) with parchment paper and pour the mixture into it.

4. Decoration: Cut the apple into thin half-moons and arrange them beautifully on top of the dough, pressing them down lightly.

5. Baking: Bake on the middle rack in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 30–35 minutes.

6. Cooling: Remove the finished cake and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Bon appétit!
