Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare the Apples:
Peel and cut one apple into small cubes and the other into thin slices. Set aside.
Make the Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt until fluffy.
Add the vanilla sugar and zero-calorie sweetener. Beat until well combined.
Add the applesauce and warm skim milk, mixing well.
Gradually add the flour mixture (whole wheat and almond flour) and baking powder, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the apple cubes and raisins.
Assemble the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Arrange the apple slices on top in a decorative pattern.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolk with 2 tablespoons of skim milk and brush over the apple slices.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Dust:
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust with powdered sugar if desired (minimal amount for flavor).
