This gluten free apple cake was a huge it when I made it. Even my picky kids could not get enough of it.
It was made with organic apples, raw sugar, nuts, gluten free oats, and coconut oil but regular items can also be substituted.
This gluten free coffee cake is moist and not overly sweet. The streusel topping adds a nice touch.
What is streusel?
Steusel is a crumbly topping - or filling - made with fat, flour or oats - sugar and some spices.
