CINNAMON APPLE CAKE

Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

  1. Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently mix—do not overmix, as this can make the cake dense.
  2. Once the batter is just combined, fold in the chopped apples. These juicy apple chunks will add bursts of flavor and moisture to the cake.

Step 6: Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Swirl

  1. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon.
  2. Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the batter.
  3. Pour the remaining batter over the top and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  4. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the cinnamon sugar into the batter for a marbled effect.

Step 7: Bake to Perfection

  1. Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. If the top starts browning too quickly, you can loosely cover it with aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.

Step 8: Cool and Glaze (Optional)

  1. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  2. Transfer it to a wire rack and let it cool completely before adding the glaze.

To Make the Glaze

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake using a spoon or piping bag.

Serving and Storing the Cake

  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. You can also freeze it for up to 2 months—just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap before freezing.
