There are some dishes that bring me back to my childhood. I’m sure you have those too – the ones that make you think of baking up something special with your mom or grandma, getting just a bit messy, and enjoying the fruits of your labor. For me, one of those recipes is apple cake. This cake has all of my favorite traits. It’s got a slightly dense, moist crumb, lightly spiced, tender apples, and a taste that just makes you think of lazy summer afternoons.
