Description
A wholesome Easy Apple Cake that brings the flavors of fresh apples into your kitchen, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- ¾ tablespoon baking powder
- 3 large eggs (at room temperature)
- ½ cup avocado oil (or any neutral cooking oil)
- 3 medium apples (peeled and diced small; Honey Crisp recommended)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- ½ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 7-inch springform pan with baking spray and line it with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, add the flour, sugar, and baking powder, and mix them together well.
- Add the eggs and oil into the bowl, stirring until fully combined to create a smooth but thick batter.
- Gently fold the diced apples into the batter until well coated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- About 5 minutes before the cake is done, warm the milk, butter, and sugar in a small pot over medium heat and whisk until dissolved.
- When the cake is done baking, gently poke holes on the top using a long skewer or chopstick.
- Pour the warm milk mixture over the top of the cake to soak in as it cools.
- Once absorbed, remove the cake from the springform pan and let it cool on a plate for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
- Dust the cake with powdered sugar before serving.
