Carob Apple Cake
by:
Carob, naturally sweet powder, is an alternative to cocoa powder, however, with a different taste. In contrast to cocoa, it is free of the stimulants caffeine, theobromine, and oxalic acid, which prevent the body from using calcium and zinc. It is also used to replace the flour in gluten-free diet. This is a juicy and tasty carob cake using healthy ingredients including buckwheat flour and apples. As a garnish, we have made sweet apple chips, with which we decorated the cake along with mint leaves.
