Venetian Apple Cake with Citrus Aroma

After a period of absence, moving houses, and various setbacks, I'm back to publishing.
I had a strong craving for a homemade dessert, not only for its unmatched authenticity but also for the satisfaction of baking.
The Venetian Apple Cake is a wonderfully fragrant dessert, different from the classic apple cake due to the presence of citrus in the batter.
The zest and juice of both lemon and orange make it incredibly soft, almost creamy, and truly delicious!

French Apple Cake French Apple Cake
I am not a cake person. I would trade a red velvet cheesecake for a cookie anytime. I somehow dislike the light airy sponginess. So, when it comes to the cakes that I would eat are those that are dense, fudgy or custardy. More like a brownie or a parisian flan consistency. For this Thanksgiving special, I decided to make a simple French apple cake.Call me weird, but I am that type of person who adore very simple cakes without all the fancy frosting or decorations. Don't get me wrong tho. I do admire cakes with excellent frosting art. I love how this cake draws natural flavors from the apples. It is custardy, not too overly sweet and the apples add a nice crunch.I am using a mixture of apples; gala and granny smith. Granny smith tends to be on the tart side and while this cake depends entirely on the apples for flavors, I would highly recommend use a sweeter red apple in the mix. Gala is a great choice. I decided not to peel the Gala apples cos I like the contrast between peeled and unpeeled. I am also using a mixture of sugar. Again, contrast between granulated and dark muscovado sugar. I decided to serve my apple cake with apricot compote, vanilla bean ice cream and a drizzle of beurre noisette. Beurre noisette is actually browned butter. I think we should get started with the recipe instead of me talking too much. Daniel Lim -

Caramel Apple Cake Caramel Apple Cake
Making the same apple cake over and over is boring, so I came up with this new version.For those who don't want their cut apples to discolour, squirt some lemon juice . In Step 2 when making the caramel, lining the frying pan makes it far easier to clean at the end! Keep an eye on the caramel right until it changes colour. Once it's a brown tea colour, take it off the heat. Recipe by mimiko10 cookpad.japan -
Easy Apple Cake Easy Apple Cake
I thought maybe since there are so many apples in this cake, it is low in calories and so it often has been featured as a snack at my house. This recipe uses a relatively modest amount of sugar, so don't reduce it further.Adding just the cinnamon is tasty, but I like to bake this cake with cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg and ginger. In this case cinnamon should be the main spice and a single sprinkle of the other spices is enough.Serving with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream makes this cake even more delicious! For 18 x 18 cm [7.1 x 7.1 in] cake. Recipe by spitze cookpad.japan -

Caramelized Apple Cake Caramelized Apple Cake
I made this because I got a lot of apples.When making the batter, be sure to add the sugar and the egg in parts, not all at once. Also, if the egg is still cold, Step 9 will become difficult, so be sure to bring it to room temperature.The ratio of sugar to apples for the caramelized apples is 10 g of sugar per 50 g of apples.
