A homemade apple cake, it’s very cinnamon-y, moist, and you will love its spongy texture…
This recipe is so simple and includes ingredients that nearly all households contain. Apples, flour, eggs, oil, sugar, milk and cinnamon! I used two kinds of apples, a Granny Smith apple and a Gala apple but any kind of apples would do.
This recipes comes together really quickly. All you have to do is pour a layer of the batter in your prepared pan, then a layer of your cinnamony apples, then again batter, and finally cinnamony apples. When you bake, please make sure not to over bake your cake, you want a nice moist cake! So after baking it for 40 minutes, check the center of the cake with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, it means that your cake is ready. If not, then bake for 10 more minutes then check again.
I love how dense and moist this cake is, and it’s completely capable of standing alone without any whipped cream or caramel sauce. The caramel is a bonus though, it can be a nice surprise to impress your guests if you have someone coming over for tea. It’s a perfect cake to be served with tea or, better still, a glass of cold milk!
Give it a try (it’s so easy – I promise you can do it!)
