Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. This will give your cake a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
- Peel and core the apples before grating them. This will help to prevent the cake from becoming too dense.
- Grate the apples using the large holes of a box grater. This will create a coarse texture that will help the apples hold their shape in the cake.
- Toss the grated apples with lemon juice. This will help to prevent them from browning.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will usually take about 60-70 minutes.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
