Flourless Chocolate Apple Cake - 5-Ingredient Gluten Free

Vanessa's Chocolate & Apple Gluten Free Cake

• 4 eggs, separated

• 115 g/4.06 ozs. castor/superfine sugar

• 115 g/4.05 ozs. plain chocolate, melted

• 1 medium sized apple, peeled, cored and grated (I accidentally chopped it but grating is better I think)

• 125g/4.4 ozs. almond meal

Step 1 - Preheat oven to 180C degrees/350F

Step 2 - Lightly grease and line a 20cm/8inch cake tin (I used a heart tin as I only had a 22 or 23cm tin and didn't want it to turn out too flat)

Step 3 - Beat egg yolks with sugar until pale and creamy. Mix in melted chocolate, almond meal and grated apple.
