Prep

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Prepare a pyrex dish.

1. 2

   Warm your milk. Mix the milk, vanilla, and psyllium husks together and give a good stir with a whisk. The psyllium husks can gel, so just whisk them for 30 seconds to smooth everything out. Set aside for about 30 minutes.

Prepare the apples

1. 3

   Chop your apples. Toss them with the sweetener and cinnamon until evenly coated.

Make the batter

1. 4

   Into your mixing bowl with the milk, vanilla, and psyllium husks, add in the yoghurt and oat fibre. Mix well until smooth.

1. 5

   In another bowl, prepare the dry ingredients. Add the gluten-free flour, cornstarch, sweetener, and baking powder. Stir so it's well combined. Sift if you have clumps.

1. 6

   Put the wet ingredients into the dry. Fold with a spatula. The batter should be smooth and slightly thick.

Assemble and bake

1. 7

   Pour the cake batter over the apples. Spread evenly.

1. 8

   Bake in the preheated oven for 30-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. The time varies by oven.

Cool and serve

1. 9

   You can leave this in the pyrex dish. Just let it cool for a few minutes before eating,
