Moxy Thoughts

This Passover has been a really odd one, as we’re sheltering in place like everyone else.  We’re lucky that we can work from home and the kids can distance learn, so we can follow the guidance pretty well.  Having said that, I still wanted to have a traditional Passover Seder including all the apples, matzoh and delicious sweets.  This easy and delicious low carb apple cake was a delightful find that I modified from a recipe I found on Pinterest here.  Apple cake is a traditional item on the menu for Passover, but with our need to keep low carb and low sugar, it’s always a delight to find a recipe that creates something the whole family can love.

The key to this recipe is a lot of sweet apples and a fresh lemon to balance out the flavors.  I think we’ll try this same exact recipe with peaches when those come in season.  We choose to use gala apples for this recipe, but I think you could use any type you like, even a tart green apple.

We hope you enjoy the recipe, it’s flexible and can be modified to use coconut flour or other fruit.  Let us know how yours turns out!
