The Cake Story

Eggless apple cake, loaded with shredded apples and mildly flavored with cinnamon. This is a perfect cake to enjoy the abundance of apples in the season.

My husband recently went crazy while shopping and brought 4-5kgs of fresh apples. These Iranian apples were so aromatic, that you can smell them a mile ahead. He wanted me to bake Apple pies.

I have promised to bake these hand pies, and spiced vanilla tarts. So, before we start with the pies, i thought lets us enjoy some warm apple cake for the weekend.

My kids love to take muffins for school and this delish apple cinnamon muffins is my next bake.

With the festival season ahead, kids are at home for vacation. Simple bakes like this apple cake come handy as a snack. They also make a lovely festival gift.

The Ingredients

• Whole wheat flour, for personal reasons i bake only with whole wheat flour. You can use All purpose flour instead of whole wheat flour.
• Sweetener : I have used sweetened condensed milk in this soft and fluffy apple cake. If you are looking for a cake without condensed milk check this chocolate cake.
• Fat, i have used butter in this recipe, which can be replaced with oil.
• Leaveners : This moist fruit cake uses both baking powder and baking soda.
• Flavors : I used cinnamon and vanilla in this aromatic apple cake.

Step by Step Instructions for the Best Apple Cake

Please check recipe card below for exact measurements of each ingredient used and also for the detailed instructions

• Sift all the dry ingredients together. If you are new to baking, i would recommend a flour sifter. But a whisk too would do good.
• Wash, peel, and grate 3 medium sized apples into a plate. Add this grated apple to flour mix and mix together. This helps the apple to spread all over the baked cake, instead of sinking in the bottom.

• In another bowl, whisk together condensed milk, butter, vanilla extract and water.
• To this wet ingredients add the dry ingredients in batches and mix. Take care while mixing together, be gentle.
• Pour the prepared batter on to a greased cake tin, i have used two 5 inch cake pans. Bake the cakes in a preheated oven at 160C for 45-50 minutes.
• Once baked, remove the cakes out of the oven, let it sit for 10 minutes. Then slowly remove the cake on to a wire rack. Let it cool completely on the wire rack. Slice and enjoy.

A warm slice of this eggless apple cake feels like bliss on a winter evening. Pair it with a cup of your favorite beverage.

Important points to note

• Sifting or whisking the dry ingredients together helps to get a homogenous flour mix. It also creates a lightness in the dense flour mix. If you are a beginner to baking, i recommend using a flour sifter to do this. A whisk also works well
• Do not beat the batter vigorously. Use gentle cut and fold method to mix.
• If you are beginner to baking , i recommend lining your pan with parchment paper after greasing it. This helps to keep the cake intact without sticking to the pan.
• Baking time varies from oven to oven. I baked this in my microwave convection oven. If I bake the same in my gas oven, it will take only 30 minutes. So baking according to your oven.
• Resting time is very important to remove the cake intact from the pan. So have patience.
• Allow the cake to cool well before slicing it, to get a proper slice.
