Step 1
1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees with the rack in the center. Line a baking pan with a silicone mat or grease it with butter and dust with flour. Place the pan on a baking sheet. Peel the apple, remove the core, and cut into small cubes. In a bowl, whisk together milk, apple cider, egg, vanilla and almond extracts, and butter. In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
