Perfect Apple Cake
When in doubt about what dessert to serve at your next gathering, apple cake is the answer. It’s so incredibly easy to make, moist, and it’s a crowd-pleaser. It is one of those cakes where you mix everything together and not think much about it.
Ingredients You’ll Need
We kept it simple and sweet (quite literally) with this apple cake recipe. The goal of this cake was to make it sweet enough so people could make it for a dessert, but not too sweet that you couldn’t have it for breakfast. Why? Because adding shredded apples adds moisture and natural sweet goodness to whatever it’s in. Here are all of the ingredients for this apple cake.
Apples (we used granny smith apples + )- we used more of a tart apple for this recipe. If you are in a pinch and have a different type of apple, feel free to substitute. Applesauce- the applesauce in this recipe adds moisture and extra apple flavor. All-purpose flour– all purpose flour lightens up this cake so it’s not too dense. Chai Spice– nothing screams fall more than chai spice. We use our homemade chai spice mix to flavor this apple cake. We highly suggest making your own chai spice, but store-bought will do, too.Light brown Sugar (or coconut sugar)– we love using brown sugar in cake recipes. Eggs– be sure to use large eggs for this recipe. If you are looking for an egg alternative, try using a homemade flax egg. Greek Yogurt– using a little Greek yogurt in a baking recipe adds a bit of protein and reacts with the baking powder and baking soda to make a fluffy cake. Vanilla– Don’t skip the vanilla extract. Baking powder + baking soda- we use the perfect combination of baking powder and baking soda in this apple cake recipe. Almond milk- a little bit of almond milk helps to thin out the batter. Maple Syrup– a bit of maple syrup compliments the apple and the chai spices used in this recipe. Coconut Oil- the fat or oil in this cake is coconut oil.
