An easy and delicious apple cake from my mother that fills the house with a wonderful aroma every time I make it! I've tried many apple cakes, but this one has become my favorite treat to enjoy with my afternoon coffee.

A few more tips:

I use brown sugar for the apple cake, but you can use whatever you like.

Steps

  1. 1

    Beat the sugar and butter together until smooth (for convenience, I melted the butter).

  2. 2

    Add the eggs, then gradually add the flour. Finally, add the brandy, vanilla, and baking powder. The batter will be a bit thick, but don't worry.

  3. 3

    Peel and slice the apples—not too thin, but not too thick either. I personally like them a bit thicker so you can really taste the apple in the cake.

  4. 4

    Place the apple slices in a nonstick skillet, sprinkle with 3 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon. Stir constantly until the apples soften and the sugar turns syrupy. Then gently fold the apples into the batter so they're evenly distributed.

  5. 5

    Pour the mixture into a buttered baking pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50 minutes.

  6. 6

    If you like, you can sprinkle powdered sugar on top after it cools. I didn't add any.
