Apple pie

Description

Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. The special feature of this cake is that you don't need to beat the batter—just mix all the dry ingredients. The key here is using very juicy apples; their juice soaks the dry ingredients, making the cake tasty, soft, and moist. Be sure to grate some of the apples instead of just chopping them into small pieces, so they release more juice. Optionally, add a bit of cinnamon or vanilla to the filling. Serve warm or chilled. Ideal with tea.
