A classic in Irish home cooking, apple cake is made by sandwiching cinnamon-coated apple slices between layers of buttery batter and baking it. Served warm, the juices from the apples blend into the batter and keep the cake moist.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Preparing the Batter

12 min

Beat the softened butter with the sugar and add the eggs one at a time. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt, then add the dry ingredients along with the milk. Mix until smooth.

2

Layering in the Apples

10 min

Spread half of the batter in a greased baking pan and arrange half of the cinnamon-coated apple slices on top. Pour in the remaining batter and arrange the rest of the apples over it.

3

Baking

33 min

Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C / 355°F for 33 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm.

Reminder

Do not slice the apples too thinly; they can release their juices in the oven and make the batter watery. Medium-thick slices help the cake keep its texture. Allergens: Contains wheat (gluten), dairy, and egg.
