I based this recipe on Makiko Fujino's "Tart Tartin Style Cake" and adjusted the ingredients to my preference and also reduced the amount of tools used to save on clean-up time.I use a Teflon-coated deep pot with removable handles that can be used in the oven. This saves on clean-up time and is simple and easy for cooking! But it's fine to use a pot with handles that can be put in the oven. If you don't have one, make the caramel in a small sauce pan, then pour it into a round cake pan. The cake is delicious fresh from the oven, but if you let it sit for 1 to 2 days, the caramelized apples will blend into the cake and it will become nice and moist. Recipe by *porin*

I love black tea and apple, so I created a cake which combines both, and doesn't use a lot of fat.Please adjust the baking time depending on your oven. I used half of a large apple. Please also adjust amount of apple added depending on how big your apples are. Recipe by Orenjiringu

I made this for my husband on his birthday, since he loves peaches. We decorated it candles to celebrate.Let cool on a rack once baked, and wrap with cling wrap so it doesn't dry out. It'll be a lot more moist the following day.Serve with a dollop of whipped cream, as desired. Recipe by Chihiro

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.

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.

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

I had extra apples around and wanted to make a cake, so I researched apple cake recipes, combined a few and came up with this. It's very moist and tasty.

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

I was selected as a tester for Aspartame sweetener, so I tried using it to make some sweets that I usually avoided due to the calories.I recommend using Earl Grey tea. Adjust the amount of water according to how rich you would like the lemon icing. If you let it sit overnight, it will become even more moist. You can also bake it in an 18-cm pound cake pan.

This recipe is a modified version of the "Apple Fluffy Cake" shown in the TV show "Cookin' Idol Ai! Mai! Main!". I added tea leaves in my version. This cake is easy to bake so I highly recommend it.This cake is moist and fluffy. You don't even need to beat the egg white for a long time.Anything that goes well with apples will be tasty.Add walnut, sweet potato or cinnamon powder,and it will be delicious.Try many variations.

This is a great cake to enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea. You can also eat it as a dessert, topped with chantilly cream.

I bought a lot of apples since they were in season. They were ripe and I wanted to use them. I had butter, so I made pound cakes.The batter rises easily and evenly when you shift the dry ingredients three times. You could do it twice but... Keep the cut apples in a colander so that it won't be watery. Recipe by Tamakinopapa
