Apple Cake

Recipe Description

This Apple Cake recipe is a simple cake that my granny used to make when we would visit at the weekends. It is super simple to make and tastes absolutely delicious. I regularly make this cake just to have with morning coffee. It will keep for a few days in an airtight container. 

Start by creaming butter, sugar and vanilla before adding eggs, flour and milk. Transfer the cake batter to a springform baking pan and bake for 35-40 minutes. Allow to cool before serving with a large spoon of whipped double cream on top! 

To make Apple Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
