APPLE WALNUTS CAKE

Apple walnuts cake is great for any occasion, as well as a sweet dessert for Rosh Hashanah. Apples in honey is a symbol of Rosh Hashanah which stands for a sweet upcoming year. Following the Low Glycemic Index Lifestyle, we should avoid using honey. I made this Apple and Walnuts Cake using natural fructose, and the result exceeded all my expectations. Moist and full of flavor!
