FRESH APPLE POUND CAKE

I prefer to use a tart, crispy apple such as Fuji for this cake. Cake will store nicely and is better the day after baking when all flavors have mellowed. Serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or simply slice and eat with coffee or milk. Enjoy!

Tips for Making the Best Apple Pound Cake

  • Use Fresh, Crisp Apples: Granny Smith and Honeycrisp apples are great choices for their tartness and ability to hold their shape when baked.
  • Peel and Core Apples Properly: Use a sharp knife to remove the peel, then use an apple corer to remove the core, leaving the apple intact.
  • Toss Apples with Lemon Juice: This prevents the apples from browning and helps maintain their fresh flavor.
  • Use Quality Ingredients: Always opt for fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Don't Over-mix the Batter: Over-mixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake Until a Toothpick Inserted in the Center Comes Out Clean: This ensures that the cake is fully baked through.
