Baked apple cake is the perfect dessert for a cold autumn day or for a simple and delicious treat. With a fluffy dough and apples that caramelize gently in the oven, this dessert brings both a sweet taste and a pleasant aroma to the whole house. Not only is it easy to prepare, but it is also a healthier choice, with apples as the main ingredient. Plus, the cake can be enjoyed both hot and cold, making it perfect for any time of day!
Tips:
- Choose the right apples – Use tart apples (such as Golden Delicious or Jonathan).
- Drain the grated apples well – After grating them, leave them for 10 minutes. Then squeeze them gently. This will prevent the cake from becoming too moist.
- Use eggs at room temperature – This helps to make the dough fluffier and more homogeneous.
