About Versunkener apfelkuchen

Versunkener Apfelkuchen, translating to 'sunken apple cake,' is a traditional German dessert. Made by embedding apple slices into a lightly sweetened sponge or butter cake batter, it originates from German and Austrian culinary traditions. The cake typically contains eggs, butter, flour, sugar, and apples, resulting in a mildly sweet flavor. Nutritionally, it provides moderate amounts of carbohydrates from the flour and sugar, some protein from eggs, and dietary fiber and vitamin C from the apples. Though generally served as a dessert, its simple ingredients offer a more wholesome alternative compared to highly processed cakes.

Health Benefits

• Apples supply vitamin C, which can support immune health and skin health.
