Mini apple cakes with a soft almond crumb, warm spice, and a swoop of rye-cinnamon whipped cream.
I have so many cozy, homey apple dessert recipes from homemade apple cider doughnut cake, apple crisp, and sheet cakes. But, sometimes the occasion calls for something a little bit more elegant, and these mini apple spice cakes are the perfect thing.
I baked these apple cakes in mini tart pans for a pretty presentation and perfect individual portions. The almond flour in the batter gives them an ultra-tender, lightly nutty crumb ~ worthy of capping off a special dinner. And the cinnamon–rye whiskey whipped cream sends them right over the top.
Ingredients:
For the Cakes
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt

- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/8 tsp allspice
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 small to medium apples, cored and thinly sliced (about 1 heaped up loosely packed apple slices)
