The best apple-cake-dessert-thing ever

So, I've been a bad blogger... I know.  Things is crazy.  I guess I'll have to blog about all the craziness at some point.  But I'm getting closer to my Phd, so a little crazy (or a lot) is to be expected.

Anyway, I was forced to come blog because a week or so ago I found the unicorn of cookbooks.  A gluten-free, casein-free cookbook developed by a chef so she could cook for her 13 year old son.

Tonight, I wanted a dessert, and Mowgli ate the last cookie.  So I made the apple coffee cake from the book.  Pure Heaven.  So I'm sharing the recipe:

• Preheat oven to 375.  Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or springform pan.
• Peel and cube 2 large apples.  You want about 2 cups of apples.
• In a small bowl, toss together 2 tsp. GF flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup chocolate chips, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, and 1 tsp. cinnamon.
• In another small bowl, whisk together  2 eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar,  and 1/4 cup brown sugar until smooth.  Whisk in 1/2 cup oil and 2 tsp vanilla.
• In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp. salt.  
• Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
• Pour half the batter into the prepared pan, top with half the apples, and half the chocolate chip mixture.  
• Repeat layers.
• Bake for about 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

I think I need another slice.
