Box Cake with Apple and Chocolate

Ingredients

• 170 g dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa)
• 100 g spelt whole‑grain flour
• 165 g spelt flour type 630
• 3 tsp baking powder
• 2 Apples
• 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
• 100 g softened butter
• 100 g apple sauce
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 pinch salt
• 3 eggs

Instructions

1. 1.

   If necessary, grease and dust the cake pan. Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces. Mix with both flours and the baking powder. Peel the apples, cut them into small cubes and combine with the lemon juice.

2. 2.

   Beat the butter until creamy with a hand mixer. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the apple sauce, honey and salt. Fold in the flour‑chocolate mixture and the apples, stirring only lightly with a spoon. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (convection: 160 °C; gas: level 2–3) for about 1 hour. Let it rest in the turned‑off oven for another ~15 minutes.
