How to Make Creamy Baked Apple Custard Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup rice syrup. Pour into the prepared pan.
  4. Peel and core 2 medium apples. Thinly slice about 1/3 of the apples (approximately 1 cup) into 1/4-inch thick slices. Arrange in a spiral pattern on top of the syrup mixture, covering the bottom of the pan.
  5. Grate the remaining apples (approximately 2 cups) and toss with 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup maple sugar, 1 cup rolled oats, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans).
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 2 large egg whites until light and fluffy.
  8. Add 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the egg mixture. Whisk until combined.
  9. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  10. Pour the batter into the prepared pan over the sliced apples.
  11. Sprinkle the grated apples evenly over the batter.
  12. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  13. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  14. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
