Preparation Steps
1
Peel, core, and thinly slice the green apples. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon and let them rest for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and sugar. This base ensures the cake has a consistent texture.
3
Melt the butter over low heat and let it cool slightly before adding it to the flour mixture. Add the eggs and milk, then mix thoroughly until you have a smooth batter.
4
Line a cake pan with parchment paper and pour in half of the batter. Arrange the apple slices evenly over the batter.
5
Pour the remaining batter over the apples, then decorate the top with a few more apple slices for an appealing presentation.
6
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7
Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
