  • At the bottom of a round spring form, add apples. They should cover the whole surface of the cake form. Pour the cake dough over the apples.

Notes

*do not over mix the eggs and sugar. Once you see tiny bubbles appear and it becomes fluffy, time to add the flour.
*if your cake pan is not new, use some cooking spray or parchment paper to prevent sticking.
