This vegan apple cake is soft, moist, and packed with apple pieces. It’s an easy, 1-bowl recipe, made with 7 simple ingredients. You won’t believe how soft, moist and easy this cake is. We love it so much that we even made a whole-wheat one and one filled with our mouthwatering vegan custard. This recipe is easy, soft, moist, made with fresh apple slices.
It’ll take you 10 minutes to prepare. We add a layer of apple slices on top to prevent the moisture from escaping the cake while it bakes. The apples on top also look beautiful and taste delicious. We love this apple cake so much that we even made a version that is filled with our vegan custard, and one made with whole-wheat flour so that we can even eat it for breakfast. Sugar: white or brown sugar, both work. You can even use coconut sugar. You can replace soy milk with any other plant milk like almond milk, oat milk, cashew milk, etc.
You can replace it with any neutral vegetable oil such as canola oil. You can also use melted vegan butter. Baking powder: to help the cake rise. Apples: any apples you have at hand. Cinnamon: you can replace cinnamon with vanilla extract. Powdered sugar: this is totally optional and we usually don’t use it if we are eating the cake for breakfast. However, if you are serving it to guests and want to make the cake look prettier, you can sprinkle some powdered sugar on top.
If you have a different size pan check out the chapter below “how to scale this recipe”. You can also mix the batter by hand with a whisk or with a silicon spatula. Mix with a spatula until the apple pieces are well incorporated into the batter. Finally, sprinkle the apples with 1 to 2 tablespoon of sugar. TIP: bake on a baking rack, not on a baking tray, because the tray will get too hot and might overcook the base of the cake. For this reason, when baking any cake, you should always check the core of the cake with a clean toothpick or skewer before you take your cake out of the oven. To do that, just insert the toothpick or the skewer in the center of the cake.
