Apple Cinnamon Cake

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a separate bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.

4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

5. Gradually mix in the flour mixture, alternating with the sour cream, until just combined.

6. In a small bowl, toss the diced apples with cinnamon until evenly coated.

7. Spread half of the batter into the prepared cake pan, then layer half of the cinnamon-coated apples on top.

8. Repeat with the remaining batter and apples, creating a layered effect.

9. Bake the cake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

10. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once the cake has cooled, slice it into generous portions and savor the delightful blend of apple and cinnamon flavors. For expert tips on achieving the perfect Apple Cinnamon Cake every time, read on.
