    I had an irresistible desire to make this Kefir Olive Oil Cake with Apples and Raisins with these beautiful autumn-colored apples. It is so comforting with a cup of coffee or tea during a rainy or cold day.

    I really love apples (organic) because they are so healthy for you. You know the old adage: “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”. That is I am doing every day if I am not using them in my cooking. The kefir and olive oil make a great combo in this healthy snack.

    I slice the apples thinly so they cook quickly and become very soft and almost invisible in the cake. I love adding a touch of rum in some desserts and its aroma pairs really well with apple and raisins.

    Servings 6 people

    Ingredients
      

    • 3 organic apples (I like Gala, Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Golden Delicious)
    • 2 eggs
    • 200 ml milk kefir, unsweetened
    • 80 g olive oil
    • 2 tablespoon rum
    • 150 g flour
    • 50 g corn starch
    • 120 g cane sugar
    • 2 teaspoon baking powder
    • 50 g golden raisins
    • 30-40 g slivered almonds

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven at 355 F.
    • In a bowl, whisk (by hand, no need for electric mixer) the eggs, kefir, olive oil, and dark rum.
    • In another bowl mix the flour, corn starch, the baking powder, and sugar.
    • Then add the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, and whisk just enough to blend the flour (do not overmix).
    • Peel and core the apples, and cut into thin slices. Add them to the batter with the golden raisins and mix gently until everything is incorporated.
    • Pour the batter into a well-buttered round cake pan (9-inches diameter). Evenly sprinkle slivered almonds over top.
    • Bake for about 45 to 50 min depending on your oven or until the tip of a knife comes out clean when inserted.
    • Before removing the cake from the mold, let it cool for 15 minutes on a wire rack. Wait until it is completely cooled before slicing.
