Honey cake with apples and nuts
Description
The baking is simple and quick. Use sour varieties of apples – they are very tasty when baked! Usually, with this baking method – with a sugar topping – the cake develops a light caramel crust that beautifully enhances the cake's flavor. However, this time the sugar did not melt at all; even the sugar sprinkled onto the pan remained as white granules. So watch the quality of the sugar. Serve warm or cooled. Perfect with tea.
