This golden brown apple-almond cake is a real autumn treat. Deliciously flavourful and not too sweet. It is gluten-free because I use almond meal instead of wheat flour. And baking time is short because the cake is quite flat.

100 g honey
50 g melted butter (+ extra to grease)
2 apples
3 eggs
50 g raisins
