Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Apples
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
Peel and core the apples, then chop them into small bite-sized pieces. Toss the apple pieces in a bowl with the lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture is pale and slightly foamy.
Add the unsweetened applesauce and vanilla extract to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold the chopped apples gently into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, optionally dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for garnish before slicing and serving.
