Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
Line a 9” spring form pan with parchment paper, or grease, flour the pan, and keep aside.
In a bowl, add all the dry ingredients – except almonds - and whisk well.
In another bowl, add all the wet ingredients and whisk well.
Add the dry to wet ingredients and whisk gently until combined. Do not overdo this step or the cake will come out dry and tough.
Pour the batter the baking pan, then place the apple slices gently on top. Add the almonds between each apple slice and in the middle of the cake.
Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cake.
Keep the cake in the pan and cool on cooling rack for 10 minutes. Remove cake from the pan and let it cool completely on cooling rack.
