Ingredients
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt.
In a large bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, plain Greek yogurt, melted coconut oil, pure maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold the diced apples into the batter until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
