Apfelkuchen (Traditional German Apple Cake)
Author: swampkitty05 // Category: Ethnic, Food Porn, Oma, RecipesWell, you all remember when I made plum cake a few months ago, right? Well, the recipe also works for apple cake as well. And here is my interpretation of my grandmother’s apfelkuchen.
You use the same sweet dough as the plum cake, but line it with sliced apples instead, and sprinkle it with a crumb made out of melted butter, flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Bake it as you would the plum cake. Delicious.

That sounds GOOD. We all can use more apples in our lives
Cheers!

Becke ~ I’m glad that you got around to making the apfelkuchen. It looks inviting in a different way to the pflaumenkuchen. I love its warm, honeyed coloring, and I bet the aroma was amazing as it baked. What variety of apples did you use?
