This was a great way to use up some leftover sauerkraut. The cake was moist and flavorful, and the crust was perfectly crispy.

I always have trouble finding the right balance of flavors in a sauerkraut dish, but this recipe totally nailed it! The sweetness of the apples and the tanginess of the sauerkraut are a perfect match.
