Apple cake is definitely my favorite cake, and I've been mastering it for a while, so I thought I'd show you guys how I make an apple cake, and since it's Saturday, it's time to think about the sweet tooth!

For the apples:

4 apples

1 tbsp cinnamon 

2 tbsp sugar

------------------------------

For the cake you need:

4 eggs

1/4 tsp cardamom

2 cups sugar

1 cup milk

1 cup oil

1 tsp vanilla

1 tbsp baking powder

3 cups flour

------------------------------

For the Jam

5-6 tbsp apricot jam

1 tbsp water

OBS! Before you start anything heat up the oven, it should be 170 degrees.

Step 1

You start by cutting the apples into small pieces, add the amount of sugar and cinnamon and mix them together (with a spoon), leave it for 30 minutes.

While that is getting ready move on to step 2

Step 2

Mix the sugar, eggs and cardamom for 10 minutes, then you add the milk, oil, the vanilla and the baking powder. Mix it for 5 minutes, finish by adding the flour and mix it in for a whole minute.

Fill the mix in a roasting pan as shown above. Step 3 Now you're going to put the apples on the pan.

Leave it in the oven for 40 minutes, but you should still check it with a toothpick.

Step 4

Meanwhile why not prepare the apricot jam?

This part is very simple, you basically just add one tbsp of water to the jam, just to make it a slightly bit thinner. The jam is going to be used to paint the cake.

Step 5

You MUST paint the cake as soon as you remove it from the oven!

Enjoy!

Lots of love
