Ingredients
- 150 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 60 milliliters milk
- 3 medium apples
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
Step 5
Peel, core, and chop the apples into small cubes. Gently fold the chopped apples into the batter using a spatula.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it into an even layer.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Slice and enjoy!
