Ingredients




3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
juice of ½ of  lemon, optional, use if apples are bland
2 to 3 apples, peeled, cored, and diced/slice

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2 Grease and flour a flat bundt pan, with spring-form edge. 3 Put the eggs, sugar, flour, salt, soda and cinnamon into an electric mixing bowl and beat until light in color. 4 Peel and cored and quarter the apples. 5 Take each quarter, cut in half the long way, and slice the short way. 6 Toss apple slices in lemon juice if desired for tartness. 7 Fold apples into the batter and spoon mixture into the pan. 8 Bake for 45 to 60 minutes. This depends on how much apples you have used and how wide your pan is. The cake should spring back when touched if it is done. 9 Serve with sweetened whipped cream.

About


This is a delicious yet wonderfully simple recipe. It always succeeds. I got the basics of the recipe in a Russian cookbook. But the title was Moscow apple cake. I know I’ve tweeked the recipe, but I’m not sure how.
