Apfel Kuchen (apple cake) image

This is my great grossmutter Weirauch's recipe. She came over to America from Germany as a teenager. It is one of the few "original" recipes I have of hers. The mace gives it a distinctive taste. I hope you enjoy it!

The streusel topping is the perfect finishing touch. It adds a bit of sweetness and crunch.

This Apfel Kuchen recipe is a keeper! The cake was moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. The streusel topping added a nice crunchy texture. I will definitely be making this again.
