Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup apples, peeled and chopped about 2 medium apples
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and chopped apples until evenly combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
