Ingredients

• 1 stick softened unsalted butter or 113 grams
• ⅔ caster sugar, plus 2 tbsp
• 2 medium eggs
• 1¼ cup ground almonds/almond flour
• ¾ cup Cake flour or All purpose flour
• ¼ cup Black sesame seeds powder
• 1 tsp baking powder (+ ½ tsp if using plain all purpose flour)
• 2 apples sliced
• 2 tbsp flaked almonds
• ⅓ tsp almond extract
• a pinch of salt

Directions

• Preheat oven at 350 degree. Grease and Line a 9 by 5 pan. You can use any pan you want.
• Mix all the dry ingredients together, the ground almonds, all purpose or cake flour,black sesame seeds flour, baking powder and salt. Mix it well with a whip or a fork until it is well incorporated.
• In a mixing bowl, add the softened butter and whip it by hand or an electric mixer until it is soft and creamy. It will take around 2 minutes. Add the eggs and sugar alternating between the two, mix and whip well until everything is silky and smooth and lighter. It will take another 3 minutes.
• Switch to a rubber spatula and add a few tablespoons of dry ingredients at a time to the wet ingredients and fold carefully. After all the ingredients are folded well, pour in the prepared pan and tap to take out any air bubbles.
• Arrange the apple any way you want and Bake in the center of the oven for 45- 1 hour depending on the size of the pan and your oven. If you see that the top it browning a bit fast or darkening, use an aluminium foil and wrap on top, so the tops remain golden brown.
• Check with a tooth pick or skewer to see if its done. Take it out and cool.
