Easy Apple Cake Made In a Frying Pan

I found out that the skin and flesh of apples contain the water-soluble dietary fiber pectin and polyphenol, and decided to try making an apple cake with the skin unpeeled. I had been discarding the skin until now.

This unpeeled apple cake tastes more tart than peeled apple cakes, and is also delicious.

If you feel like there may be a little too much skin per mouthful, you can slice the apple a little more thinly than I did in the top picture.

Sometimes after cooking, the stewed apple will stick to the frying pan, so in that case please just take them and place them on top of the cake. Recipe by Hokkori-no
