Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray an 8-inch springform pan with baking spray with flour.
- In a medium bowl, combine Granny Smith and Gala apples. Microwave on high until apples are softened but not translucent, about 2 minutes. Let cool; strain excess liquid.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat egg and 2 tablespoons (24 grams) sugar at medium speed until pale in color, about 2 minutes. Stir in melted butter, brandy, and vanilla paste.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1 cup (200 grams) sugar. Gradually add flour mixture to egg mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture, beating just until combined after each addition.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup batter and egg yolks. Stir in apples until combined, reserving ¼ cup (46 grams) apples. Spread egg yolk batter into prepared pan. Top with remaining batter, smoothing with an offset spatula. Press reserved ¼ cup (46 grams) apples into top of batter, and sprinkle with almonds.

Raise springform pan to middle of oven, and bake until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, about 35 minutes more, loosely covering with foil to prevent excess browning, if necessary. Let cool in pan for 15 minutes. Run a knife around edges of cake to loosen before removing from pan. Let cool completely on base of pan before serving.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5, and lightly oil a 20cm springform tin and line the base with a circle of baking parchment.
- In a stand mixer, or using a hand blender, whizz together the oil and maple syrup for 30 secs. Add the eggs and whizz for another 1 min before adding the apple sauce and blending for a further 30 secs. Tip in the ground almonds, baking powder, 1 tsp salt and cinnamon, blend for 30 secs and your batter is done. Pour it into the tin, and bake for around 30-40 mins or until the top is a deep golden brown, the cake is coming away from the sides a little, and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- While it's cooking, make the topping. In a small frying pan, cook the apple gently with the rest of the topping ingredients and ½ tsp salt until the apple is soft and gently caramelised. When the cake is ready, scatter the bronzed apple chunks on top of the cake. You could also make it with chunks of caramelised peach or plum on top, or some cherry compote, or any berries which you have softened in a pan with a little water and maple syrup. Eat warm, as a pudding, with a spoonful of Greek yogurt, or cold with a cup of tea or coffee.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that are good for baking, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn. These apples hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that pairs well with the sweetness of the cake.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use fresh almond paste: Fresh almond paste will give the cake a more intense almond flavor. If you can't find fresh almond paste, you can make your own by grinding almonds with sugar and a little bit of oil.
- Don't overbake the cake: The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cake cool completely before glazing: This will help the glaze set properly.
Conclusion:
This apple almond teacake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet almond glaze. It's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
