- 200 ml milk
- 300 g spelt flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Optional: 2 tsp maple syrup
✨ Method:
1️⃣ Warm up the oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C / 356°F.
2️⃣ Prep the fruit
Peel the apples and chop them into small pieces.
3️⃣ Start the batter
Add the apples, eggs, and matcha powder to a mixing bowl. Stir until the matcha is evenly blended through.
4️⃣ Bring it together
Pour in the milk, then add the spelt flour and baking powder. Mix gently until a smooth batter forms.
5️⃣ Fill the pan
Line a cake pan with parchment paper, then pour in the batter and smooth the top.

Bake for 45–50 minutes, until the cake is set and a toothpick comes out clean.
7️⃣ Let it rest
Allow the cake to cool before slicing, so the texture stays soft and tender.
