2-ingredient Apple Cloud Cake: Easy, Healthy Dessert Recipe

Description

This unique 2 ingredient apple cloud cake recipe offers a base for numerous delightful variations, including an applesauce version and a gluten-free option. With its light, airy texture and the potential for numerous flavor variations, it’s a perfect dessert for any occasion, from casual gatherings to special celebrations. Remember, the best consistency for your Cloud Cake comes from carefully folding in your ingredients to maintain the air in the whipped egg whites and ensuring your gelatin dissolves properly for that perfect cloud cake structure.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons of unflavored gelatin powder(or 5 gelatin sheets, if preferred)
  • 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 cup of Unsweetened Pear Puree
  • ½ cup of sugar(adjust based on your preference for sweetness)
  • For Flavor Variations: Optional fruit puree of choice


Instructions

  • Preparing the Gelatin: Begin by dissolving the unflavored gelatin powder in a small amount of cold water. If using gelatin sheets, soak them in cold water until soft, then gently heat in a double boiler method until the gelatin dissolves completely. This step is crucial for achieving the best consistency in your Cloud Cake structure.

 

  • Whipping the Egg Whites: In a large mixing bowl, whip the egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to whip until stiff peaks form. This process is the backbone of your cloud cake, providing that airy, cloud-like texture.

 

  • Incorporating the Gelatin: Once the gelatin has dissolved and cooled to room temperature (but not set), gently fold it into the whipped egg whites. If making the applesauce or pear puree version, fold in the fruit puree at this stage.

 

  • Baking: Pour the mixture into a greased baking pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (163°C) for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cake is set and lightly golden on top.
  • Letting the Cake Cool: It’s essential to let the cake cool completely to maintain its delicate structure. Once cooled, it can be removed from the pan for a fun presentation.

Notes
