Apple cake made with buckwheat flour

From the cookbook Strak Plan 2

A healthy version of cake: buckwheat is gluten free and therefore suitable for people with coeliac disease (a gluten intolerance) or people with a sensitivity to gluten. Gluten is a certain type of protein that is found in some grains: wheat, rye, barley (groats), spelt and khorasan wheat. You don’t need to worry about gluten, it’s just that some people have a reaction to it and so need to avoid it. TAKE NOTE! There are some grains that do not naturally contain gluten. However, it is advisable to only buy products with a gluten-free logo if you are sensitive to gluten. This is because of the potential for cross contamination during manufacturing.

Ingredients

For 8 people

200 g buckwheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
3 eggs
1 tbsp peanut oil
4 tbsp water
80 g Zùsto
200 g natural yoghurt (or a lactose-free version: Alpro Greek Style)
3 apples

Equipment

Oven
2 mixing bowls
Peeler
Grater
Cake tin

Preparation method

Preheat your oven to 200°C.
Work with the dry ingredients; place the buckwheat flour along with the baking powder and the pinch of salt in a mixing bowl.
In another mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients: eggs, peanut oil, water and natural yogurt.
Mix the dry ingredients together with the wet ingredients and add 3 tbsp Zùsto.
Peel 2½ apples and grate the apples. Add these to the dough. Cut the other ½ apple into fine slices.
Put the batter in a cake tin and place the slices of the ½ apple into the cake. You don’t need to peel these. This way you will have a nice, red colour in your cake.
Put in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
For breakfast, have a slice of cake and top it off with some fruit and another serving of yogurt. Enjoy!

‘Online is the new black’ is what we mean by the Strak Plan. One branch of the Strak Plan is the successful nutritional and dietary consultations that are mainly held online!

Strak Plan started 3 years ago as a dietician’s practice where you could go and work in a sustainable way towards a body that you accept.

We make people aware that a healthy lifestyle is easy to follow and that that number on the scale doesn’t mean anything. We look for the underlying problem because the food is just the symptom of it.

When you sign up with Strak Plan, you will receive guidance about psychological inputs, backed up with factual knowledge about nutrition. Add in a very personal approach and you know why you should choose Strak Plan if you want to work on having a life that doesn’t involve dieting!
