Cinnamon Apple Cake

Tender and moist Cinnamon Apple Cake - the perfect coffee cake or fall treat!

This recipe is a very lightly revised version of my mom's rhubarb cake recipe that we always enjoyed in the late summer/fall. I find it to be the perfect cake for this time of year as it has all the warm, dark and moody flavours of fall - brown sugar, cinnamon, apples, all wrapped up in a moist batter.

This recipe is a super easy recipe that everyone will love. It's great for a coffee cake, easy harvest field dessert, or treat to have around in case your find yourself having a bit of a sweet tooth.

Of course, you can make revisions to this recipe too. Whatever fresh or frozen fruit you have handy will go great in this cake (e.g., blueberries, strawberries, rhubarb, etc.). You can also add your favourite nuts on top or in the batter.

Okay, let's get into it!
