Apple Cardamom Cake image

My kids just love this cake. The cardamom is a subtle and kind of citrus-y spice that goes really well with the apples. The cake is very moist too, it just needs a sprinkle of icing sugar. Comes from Canadian Living magazine.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as moist as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more butter or oil next time.

The cardamom in this cake is a bit overpowering for my taste. I would recommend using less cardamom next time.
