German Apple Cake
German Apple Cake
"Last year I was heading to an Oktoberfest party, where I knew there would be delicious German beer and fabulous food and music, and I was stumped about what I should bring. I finally settled on this German Apple Cake, and was inspired by a recipe from Little Epicurian. Their version didn’t quite fit my needs, so I got a little creative with it. Mine wasn’t as neat and pretty as theirs, but let me tell you — after taking the first bite I didn’t care one bit how “pretty” it looked. This cake is salty, sweet and fruity… a combination I wasn’t sure I would be into for a dessert, but it turns out I’m a huge fan. I hope you are, too!"
