Apple cake
Description
Homemade baking for tea. Apple cake, despite its obvious simplicity of preparation and simple ingredients, turns out amazingly delicious. If you make the apple cake exactly according to this recipe, you will get a cake with a very moist, soft texture—so tender that you do not even need to wash it down with tea or coffee; it is wonderful on its own as well. It is best served warm; you can also serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream—it will be very tasty and impressive. Good luck with your baking. It can be served with tea or coffee.
