Apple roundup and a cinnamon apple cake
I ruvv fall. Almost as much as I ruvv this cinnamon apple cake. The leaves are changing, the air is crisp, and the colder temperatures mean I can start wearing sweaters again. Oh, and it’s apple season. Apples. My favorite fruit. Crunchy, sweet, tart, fresh, and absolutely delicious. So naturally I jump at any opportunity to make apple desserts. Here’s a quick recap of my previous apple adventures:
And now to add to the list, this cinnamon apple cake! It’s super moist but also light, and makes a lot of cake, seeing as half of the volume is apples. So that means half the calories, right? No, who am I kidding. It means twice the portion size.
Yaaaay. Fall.

Please explain what a “medium baking pan” is. What is the exact size???
Besides the crisp air and glorious trees, apple recipes are the next best thing about fall! I have one that combines a cake like yours with a caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream.
Looking forward to your next recipe…
