A very moist, perfectly spiced Apple Cake! This is incredibly easy to make - no mixer required. This must be made with fresh apples, not canned. See note 5 for information about different measures in different countries & different oven types. Also, I do not recommend substituting butter for all

Ingredients

12 servings

2 cups flour (, plain / all purpose (Note 1))
3/4 tsp baking soda ((bi-carb soda) (Note 1))
3/4 tsp EACH salt, cinnamon and ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg ((or 1/4 tsp freshly ground))
1 1/4 cups white sugar ((Note 2))
1 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs (, large, at room temperature (55-60g/2oz each))
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups apple ( , peeled, cored and cut into 8mm/ 1/3" cubes (~2 large, 3 small) (Note 3))
1/2 cup flaked raw almonds
Icing sugar . confectioners sugar, for dusting

Steps

Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (all oven types).
Grease and line a 21 cm / 9" springform cake pan. (Note 4)
Place flour, baking soda, salt and spices in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
Whisk oil and sugar in a bowl, then whisk in eggs and vanilla.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a wooden spoon until JUST combined. Stir through apple (optional: add 3/4 cup chopped walnuts or other nuts).
Pour into cake pan. Sprinkle over almonds.
Bake for 50 minutes - 1 hr. Check at 50 minutes - it is cooked when a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool. Dust with icing sugar if using, then serve. This cake doesn't need cream or ice cream because it is so moist, but I wouldn't turn it down!
