4 Apples and 10 Minutes for this Delicious Apple Cake
Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Prepare a 20 cm (8 inches) baking pan by lining it with baking paper and greasing it with butter.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the milk and vegetable oil, mixing well to combine.
- Sift the all-purpose flour and baking powder into the bowl, stirring gently until there are no lumps.
- Stir in the orange zest to the batter.
- Add the thinly sliced apples to the batter and fold them in gently.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top and pressing the apple slices down gently.
Baking
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- If the cake starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with foil.
- Once baked, allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
Let the batter sit for 5 minutes before pouring it into the pan to develop better structure. Experiment with adding cinnamon or nutmeg for a spiced variation.
