Cinnamon Apple Tea Cake

Share

If you are looking for a cozy baking project this week, this Cinnamon Apple Tea Cake is for you. This beautiful cake has all the comfort flavors channeled into a moist and tender cake filled to the brim with juicy apples. There’s a bit of chopping and slicing work involved here, but don’t be intimidated. The recipe is easy enough for a novice baker to tackle.

A springform comes in handy here, but a regular cake pan will do just fine in its place. Just make sure to leave enough overhang on the parchment paper to make pulling the cake out of the baking pan easier. While the jam glaze is optional, I would recommend adding it as it provides a lovely, shiny finish. I love this cake with Granny Smith apples, but Honeycrisp, Gala, or your favorite baking apple will do the trick. 

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

Bake the cake for 50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cover the top loosely with foil if you have to bake longer.
