Here we go again! It’s Fall and it’s apple season. Apple pies, apple breads, apple anything is all the rage right now because apples are at their best. In honor of that I went searching for something a little different. I mean, we all will most likely make an apple pie at some point in the next few months so I decided a quick bread or something like it would be a good idea. The end result is what I am going to share with you now … <drum roll> … a very moist and delicious apple cake that is studded with sweet apples.
