Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 9

Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten-free all purpose flour (I use Bob's Red Mill)
  • 1 tsp. xanthan gum
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. fine sea salt
  • 2 Tbsp. grape seed oil plus enough unsweetened apple sauce to equal 1/3 cup
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 apple peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1/2 cup walnuts chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat toaster oven or conventional oven to 350º F
  • Add dry ingredients to an ungreased 8x8 baking dish and mix with a fork until well blended.
  • Add wet ingredients and continue to mix with a fork - making sure to scrape along bottom and edges of baking dish - until well combined.
  • Bake approximately 30 minutes at 350ºF (if using convection setting) or 35-40 minutes (if using conventional oven) or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool in pan on wire rack for at least one hour prior to cutting.

Notes

I bake these snack cakes in my Breville toaster oven. It heats up quickly and cooks perfectly!
