Easy impressive recipe that is quick to make and everyone likes it. If you don’t add icing it becomes very light with sweetness, as much as needed.
I love apples very much and apple pies are one of my favorite desserts as you will have already notice from the many different recipes I have given you.
The smell of baked apples together with the spices makes the whole house fragrant and for me this is the scent of autumn since my childhood. I remember coming home from school and as I open the front door, this scent embraces me and calms me down. Cinnamon is a basic spice that is beneficial throughout the winter as it helps with inflammation and colds.
Here’s an easy upside down version of apple pie where the apples are mixed together with the sugar and butter and flavored wonderfully by the spices. All you have to do is cut the apples.
Tip: Check off the ingredients you have used in the recipe or note the ingredients you have and add the rest to you shopping list to buy them. - Attention: All ingredients must be checked that are Gluten-Free and without traces of gluten.

Let it cool while you make the glaze.
Sift the icing sugar together with the spices, add the milk and mix until the ingredients are combined and have a smooth mixture.

See the following video to found out how easy this recipe is:
- If you don’t have gluten-free self-rising flour, then use gluten-free pastry flour and add 1 tsp. baking powder.
- Use whatever kind of apples you like. I put 3 kinds, red Starking, pink Fuji and Green Granny Smith. As you can see, it is done with all kinds of apples.
- Every oven heats different. My new oven is slower than the old one. The time I’m giving in every recipe is approximately. Watch them as they baking and adapt the time.
- The toothpick test: dip a clean toothpick or wood skewer into the center of the cake, if it comes out clean, without traces of dough, it means that your cake is baked. If it is not, leave it for another 5 minutes and repeat the same test. If the top surface of your cake has darkened a lot, but the toothpick is still wet when comes out of the dough, then cover it with a piece of aluminum foil so that it doesn’t get another color and continue baking.
Good Luck and Bon Appétit!!!
