Rich and delicious: butter glaze
You don't have to or don't want to pay attention to calories when it comes to cake? Then refine your flourless apple cake with a butter-sugar-cinnamon glaze. Simply mix 5 tablespoons of liquid butter with 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and pour over the still hot apple pie. The glaze absorbs and makes the cake even juicier. Slivered almonds go very well as a crunchy topping.
