Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 9-inch spring form or regular pan on the sides with baking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, beat the maple syrup, oil (or melted butter), eggs, sour cream and vanilla until smooth.
3. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Sift them into the batter and mix on low speed for about 1 minute, just until no dry flour shows.
4. Fold in 2 cups of diced, peeled apples. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and scatter the remaining 1 cup of diced apples over the top.
5. For the streusel, cut the cold butter into small pieces and put it in a bowl with the 1/3 cup flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Cut the butter into the flour with a pastry blender or two forks until small crumbs form.
6. Stir in the sliced almonds, then pour in the 2 tbsp maple syrup and toss lightly until no dry flour remains. Sprinkle the crumble over the cake.
7. Bake at 350°F (177°C) for about 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, checking from 55 minutes. It is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Remove the cake from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack.
9. For the optional whipped cream, whisk the chilled heavy cream with 1/3 cup maple syrup on high speed for 4 to 5 minutes, until stiff peaks form.
