For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of turbinado sugar on top of the cake before baking. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert. Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes)
02
Step
2 mins
Grease and lightly flour an 8 1/2 x 11-inch baking dish or roasting pan to prevent sticking. (2 minutes)
03
Step
3 mins
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. This ensures even distribution of the spices. (3 minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for a tender cake. (5 minutes)
05
Step
5 mins
Beat in one egg, then incorporate 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture. Repeat this process twice more, alternating between egg and flour. This prevents the batter from curdling. (5 minutes)
06
Step
3 mins
Gently fold in two-thirds of the remaining flour mixture. Stir in the milk until just combined, then fold in the rest of the flour. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake light. (3 minutes)
07
Step
5 mins
Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish. Arrange the apple slices artfully on top, then cover with the remaining batter. (5 minutes)
08
Step
45 mins
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue baking until the cake is golden brown and firm to the touch, approximately 30 minutes longer. (45 minutes)
09
StepLet the cake cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
