Easy Fresh Apple Loaf Cake

 

If you love a basic recipe that comes out perfect every time, this one is it. One bowl, simple ingredients for the most delicious apple loaf cake. Bake one up soon, you’re sure to enjoy!

 

 

 

This is one of those cakes that you will want to make over and over again.

 

A simple recipe that’s a staple around my house.

 

You can use any apple of choice. It’s a versatile recipe that you can change around the type of apple for a different flavor each time you make it.

 

I happen to have Gala apples in the house so that’s what I used this time. 

 

Just a recipe note, the two apples that I wouldn’t use in this recipe are Red Delicious and McIntosh. They are delicious for eating but are a little too soft for baking. They tend to fall apart while baking. So, use other varieties if you can. 

 

Like I said, I used Gala this time around but, I’ve used Golden Delicious and Granny Smith apples, they both hold up beautifully and the loaf cake came out perfect. It’s just a great cake recipe that hasn’t let me down.  

 

Also, it’s so nice that the cake is made in one bowl for easy cleanup. Don’t you love that? 

 

We all love the aroma while this is baking. The whole house smells divine.

 

Best is yet to come when you get to take your first bite of this super easy fresh apple loaf cake.  It’s a winner!
