How to Make Apple Oat Cake Low Gi

Lightly spray a 9-inch round cake tin with vegetable oil.
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
**Cake:** In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, ½ cup rolled oats, ½ cup almond flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together ½ cup plain Greek yogurt and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Add ½ cup unsweetened apple juice and 2 large eggs to the batter. Beat with a hand mixer or whisk until well combined. Gently fold in 1 ½ cups peeled and diced apples.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin.
**Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Add ½ cup rolled oats, ¼ cup whole wheat flour, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and ½ cup grated apple to the yogurt mixture.
Mix until the topping is crumbly.
Crumble the topping evenly over the cake batter.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when lightly touched.
