German Apple Cake Recipe
Versunkener Apfelkuechen
A delicious German apple cake recipe from my mother-in-law. The most easy apple cake recipe alive!
This is an easy cake recipe that everyone can bake. You basically mix all the ingredients together, press the apples into the mixture and pop it into the oven. If you are looking for an easy apple cake recipe, then bake this one. Around Stuttgart, the area where my husband originates from, apple orchards are in abundance. My father-in-law has his own orchard so this is one of our favourite apple cake recipes.

Versunkener Apfelkuchen "Sunken Apple" Cake
Cake Baking
250g plain flour 200g sugar 125g soft butter 3 eggs 1 pack vanilla sugar (I use Dr Oetker) pinch of salt 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1-2 tablespoons of milk 2-3 apples sliced Preheat oven to 180 C. Prepare and grease cake tin. I normally use a 28 cm (10inch) round cake tin. Mix together all the ingredients apart from the apples.Pour the mixture into the cake tin and smooth the top until flat.Push the apple pieces gently, at random, into the cake so they sink slightly into the mixture. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Turn off the oven and let it rest in the oven for 10 minutes. Test whether the cake is cooked through by piercing the centre with a toothpick. If it comes out clean then the cake is done. Let the cake cool.
