This cake of green apples and peanuts is very simple but definitely delicious. It is part of the traditional Lombard, I made some substitutions in the ingredients to make it suitable even for those who can not eat gluten and dairy.

Use the silken tofu in the dough to replace dairy products and fat, absolutely no effect on the taste and makes the dough soft and moist.

In crumble whites replace butter which usually is used to assemble the crisp.

Lemon marmalade sweetened with apple juice replaces sugar.
