This vegan apple cake with almonds is the perfect treat for those sunny and nice early fall days. Satisfy your sweet tooth with this delicious vegan apple cake with lots of cinnamon! BIG yum!
Apple season has arrived and is there any better way than celebrating it than by making apple cake? I don’t think so! Except maybe making apple pie. But this time, I decided to go for a delicious vegan apple cake with grated apples in the batter and extra apples on top. Pure apple heaven so to say!
Flo and I went apple picking last weekend and we got soooo many apples. So of course I just had to make a vegan apple cake. I’ve also made apple pancakes for breakfast on Sunday and we had a delicious apple pear smoothie the other day. I also thought about making apple juice, but I don’t have a juicer, so I don’t know if that will work out. I’ll try making it with my vitamix, but it will probably not be the same. We also bought some super fresh apple juice at the apple farm where we went apple picking and it was so good! It was only apples, nothing else. No sugar, no concentrate, nothing. Just 100 % apples. Too bad it was gone way too fast!
But back to the vegan apple cake. You won’t need many ingredients for it and the recipe couldn’t be easier! I’ve made it so many times and it’s always a winner. It’s so moist and fluffy at the same time!

Just tried it and it tastes great. I’m going to try it with walnuts, too, I think, since I love the combination of apples and walnuts.
Hello, I would like to try your recipe, but I am a bit confused about the size of the spring form…
Do you use a round 8 inch spring form? Or a 12 inch spring form? I have never heard about a 8 x 12 inch form.
Hi Bram, Oh I’m sorry about that. I used a 28 cm round spring form and I just googled again because I’m always a bit confused about inches and centimeters. This should be a 11 inch round spring form. So it’s a rather big baking form. Again I’m so sorry about that mistake! Just corrected it in the recipe. :-)
Can we use chia eggs instead of flax eggs?
I made this vegan apple cake for a baking sale last week and it turned out super delicious! Very moist and filling with the nuts though! :-)
