Instructions

Preparing The Sponge Base

  1. Preheat the oven to 175° C (350° F) and lightly coat a 23 cm (9") springform cake tin with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Beat softened butter with sugar until light and fluffy, for about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time along with the vanilla, and keep whisking until fully incorporated.
  4. Mix the flour, salt, and baking powder and gently fold them into the wet ingredients until nicely combined, without overmixing them.
  5. Pour the cake batter into the pan.
  6. Peel and core the apples using an apple corer to make the job easier! Cut the apples in half, then slice them thinly.
  7. Evenly distribute sliced apples on top of the batter. Set it aside and start preparing the crumble to top the cake.

Preparing The Crumble

  1. Melt the butter in a microwave or on the stove and let it cool down for a few minutes.
  2. Combine the melted butter with sugar, cinnamon, and flour, and mix until it forms a crumbly mixture.
  3. Add the chopped walnuts into the crumble mixture and mix until combined.
  4. Cover the apples with the crumble and cook it for 45-50 minutes or until the crumble looks golden brown and the cake is fully cooked. 

Notes

  • Make sure your eggs and butter are at room temperature before using them for making the cake.
  • When adding the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, do not use an electric whisk as it will cause the cake to be denser and less spongy.
  • Make sure to measure the flour correctly using an electronic scale. However, if you don’t have a scale, be sure to fluff your flour with a spoon and then spoon it into your cups before leveling it off with a knife to avoid overfilling the measuring cup.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar to your taste, and the type of apples you are using for your cake.
