This cake is amazing…certified by my husband!!!! The hardest part is grating the apples which I did by hand. Wonderful!
When I read your recipe i had doubts. Anyway I decided to make it, because I found it interesting. It is delicious, moist, with soft cake layers and apple filling inside, just like your photos! Also it is so easy! Thank you for this wonderful recipe.
Thank you for trying my recipe. Glad you liked it 🙂
Great recipes! Better than I expected without eggs however I found the milk is better poured over each layer to avoid flour residue on the bottom layer
Hello,
I’m very interested in making this recipe, could I substitute the flour for almond or oat flour?
Thank you so much for your time.
Hi,
I haven’t tried it. It might work, but the result will definitely not be the same (it won’t have the same soft texture).
Thank you for your response.
