Ingredients

150 g peanut flour (finely ground peanuts)
100 g peanut butter (gluten-free)
450 g applesauce (unsweetened)
4 eggs (size M)
120 ml milk (1.5% fat)
80 g honey (liquid)
180 g oat flour (gluten-free)
12 g baking powder (gluten-free)
1 pinch salt
250 g low-fat quark
40 g baking cocoa

Additionally required

1 piece baking paper

Preparation of the Base

1
Preheat the oven to 175 °C top/bottom heat. Line a round springform pan (Ø 18 cm) with baking paper.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together applesauce, eggs, peanut butter, 80 ml milk, and 40 g honey until smooth. Then add peanut flour, oat flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything thoroughly until a homogeneous dough forms.
3
Pour the dough into the prepared pan and bake in the preheated oven for approx. 50–55 minutes. Let the finished base cool completely (approx. 1.5 hours).

Cream and Finishing

1
For the chocolate cream, whisk low-fat quark, baking cocoa, the remaining 40 g honey, and 40 ml milk in a small bowl until smooth.
2
Once the cake base has cooled, cut it horizontally in half. Spread half of the cream on the bottom half, place the top half on top, and spread the remaining cream evenly over the cake.
3
Let the cake chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Tip

Sprinkle the cake with chopped peanuts before serving for an extra crunch.

Tipp: Verwenden Sie für ein besonders intensives Aroma frisch gemahlene Erdnüsse. Die Torte schmeckt am besten, wenn sie über Nacht im Kühlschrank durchziehen konnte.
