Can’t Miss This: Ultimate 4×9 Apple Cake Recipe for Perfect Fluffiness!

Are you intrigued by the name of this dessert? Don’t worry, the recipe is quite straightforward and simple. You will need only four basic ingredients measured in multiples of nine tablespoons each (milk, oil, sugar, and flour), to which you will add some apple slices and eggs. The end result? A deliciously moist cake that will delight all those with a sweet tooth.

• 3 apples
• 3 eggs
• 9 tbsp of neutral oil
• 9 tbsp of milk
• 9 tbsp of granulated sugar
• 9 tbsp of flour
• Butter for greasing the pan
• 1 packet of baking powder

1. In a mixing bowl, combine whole eggs with sugar, flour, milk, oil, and baking powder.
2. Peel the apples and cut them into pieces.
3. Fold the apple pieces into the batter, mixing thoroughly.
4. Grease a baking mold and pour the mixture into it.
5. Bake for 40 minutes at 180°C (350°F).
6. Serve warm or cold, perhaps with tea or hot chocolate.

Experiment with different fruits throughout the year to keep this cake seasonal. In summer, try using apricots, berries, or peaches. Come autumn, plums make an excellent choice, and in winter, consider using pears or mango chunks.

If you’re gluten intolerant or sensitive, you can make this cake using a blend of gluten-free flours such as cornstarch, rice flour, chestnut, or oat flour.

You might also substitute cow’s milk with a plant-based alternative like soy or hazelnut milk.

Several apple varieties are suitable for this cake. The slightly tart Reine des Reinettes holds up well during baking and is ideal, but you could also choose the sweet Golden or Elstar varieties. However, avoid Granny Smith, which is too acidic, or Canada, which tends to break down when cooked. Always opt for firm, healthy apples with no blemishes or bruises and smooth skins.
