Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Apple Cake

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9-inch round cake pan by greasing it with vegetable oil or butter and dusting it with flour.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon; whisk together until well-blended.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then add vegetable oil and vanilla extract, mixing until fully integrated.
  • Fold in the chopped apples into the wet mixture gently.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just blended.
  • Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat. Store in an airtight container for best freshness.
