Apple pieces and flour
I mix the apple pieces that go through the cake with a little flour before they go through the batter. This keeps them from sinking to the bottom too quickly.
What a beautiful and incredibly delicious cake this turned out to be! An apple cake with both apples through the batter and slices on top for decoration. A new favorite among my apple and cake recipes.
This apple cake recipe is just like a regular vanilla cake, but you add apples to it. This not only gives the cake a delicious flavor, but also makes it nice and moist. The apple slices on top are for decoration, but they make the cake even more pleasing to the eye.
For best results, place the apple slices on top of the cake and gently press them into the batter. And don’t you just love it?
Whether you can officially call this an old-fashioned apple pie, I dare not say. But just like my grandmother’s apple pie, you may remember this cake, in a slightly different form or not, from back in the day. Old-fashioned or not, it still tastes great!
You don’t need much for this apple cake recipe. You can start with the standard cake ingredients and some apples. I prefer to use Jonagold or Goudreinet apples for baking. They have a great flavor and texture for baking. Of course you can use other apples, but the result may be slightly different.
In the fall and winter, I always have plenty of apples around the house to bake with. An apple cinnamon cake remains a favorite, but there are other delicious apple recipes. As you will see, I like to combine apples with cinnamon in my recipes, a perfect flavor combination.

You can make this apple cake in a standard loaf pan. I personally like to use this rectangular pan. Of course, you can make it in any other shape. The baking time may vary slightly.
You can keep the apple cake outside the refrigerator for about a week if wrapped properly. You can also freeze the cake and it will keep for 3 months.
