"In his debut cookbook, What Can I Bring? Recipes to Help You Live Your Guest Life, author Casey Elsass features this apple cake that seems like the poster child for fall. A simple batter made entirely by hand is packed with chopped apples and turned into a cake pan."
"Elsass mentions the addition of apple cider vinegar in the batter as a unique addition, but we think it's the topping that truly sets this apple cake apart from all others. The cinnamon sugar topping sets into the cake as it bakes, functioning like a low-effort streusel."
The recipe uses a simple batter mixed entirely by hand and studded with chopped apples for pronounced fruit texture. A small amount of apple cider vinegar in the batter adds brightness and helps balance sweetness while contributing a subtle lift in the crumb. The batter is poured into a cake pan and finished with a generous cinnamon-sugar topping. As the cake bakes the topping melts and caramelizes, setting into the surface to form a streusel-like crust with minimal effort. The finished cake yields a tender, moist interior flecked with apple and a crisp, sweet-spiced top ideal for fall gatherings.
