Ingredients
  

Cake
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 packet baking powder 1 1/4 teaspoons or 5 grams
  • pinch of salt
  • pinch of cinnamon optional
  • 1 1/2 apples (I eat the other half 😉)
Crunch Topping
  • 1 cup dark or light brown sugar (We don't have that here, so I use Moscovado Sugar)

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Method
 

  1. Beat eggs well with sugar and vegetable oil
  2. Add flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon and mix for two minutes.
  3. While cake batter is mixing, peel and thinly slice an apple. Cut the slices in thirds.
  4. Line your baking pan with baking paper to make for easy clean-up.
  5. Pour into the pan of your choice and add the apple slices on top. With a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon, gently press the apple slices a bit into the batter. They should not be completely submerged.
  6. Crunch Topping (optional):
  7. Combine flour and cinnamon
  8. Add brown sugar
  9. Mix by hand until thoroughly combined
  10. Sprinkle generously on top of cake
  11. Bake at 350F / 170C for 50 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick. If needed, continue to bake in increments of 5 - 10 minutes.
