Scandinavian Marzipan & Apple Cake

Makes: 8–10 slices

Ingredients

  • 200 g Garant Marzipan
  • 2 medium tart apples
  • 125 g butter, softened
  • 100 g sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 120 g plain flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp ground cardamom
  • Pinch of salt
  • 50 ml milk
  • 30 g sliced almonds
  • Optional: pearl sugar for the top

To serve

  • Lightly whipped cream, crème fraîche, or vanilla ice cream

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 175°C. Butter and line a 20 cm round cake tin.
  2. Grate about 150 g of the Garant Marzipan. Beat the butter, sugar, and grated marzipan until creamy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
  4. Mix the flour, baking powder, cardamom, and salt, then fold into the batter with the milk.
  5. Spoon the batter into the tin.
  6. Core and thinly slice the apples, then arrange them over the top.
  7. Tear or grate the remaining 50 g marzipan over the apples. Scatter with sliced almonds and, if you like, a little pearl sugar.
  8. Bake for 30–40 minutes, until golden and just set in the middle.
  9. Cool slightly before serving.

The marzipan keeps the cake soft, rich, and almondy, while tart apple and cardamom stop it becoming overly sweet. It would work especially well as a fika cake with coffee.
