The Best Apple Cake

Instructions

Baking Time:
Approximately 40 minutes in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) on both upper and lower heat.

Cream Butter and Sugar:
In a bowl, cream together 1 cup of soft butter and 1 cup of sugar until it's nice and creamy.

1. Add Eggs:
   Incorporate 4 eggs into the mix, and beat for around 4 minutes until well combined.
2. Gradually Add Ingredients:
   Gradually add the remaining ingredients—1 packet of baking powder, 1 cup of ground walnuts, 2 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoons of milk, and a splash of vanilla extract. Keep beating until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
3. Prepare the Pan and Arrange Apples:
   Grease a 10-inch (26cm) baking pan. Pour the batter into the pan, smoothing it out. Arrange sliced apples on top.
4. Sprinkle with Goodness:
   Sprinkle a handful of walnuts and a generous dash of cinnamon over the apples.
5. Bake to Perfection:
   Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for about 40 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick—it should come out clean.
6. Enjoy the Delight:
   Once baked to perfection, let it cool. Slice into this deliciously soft and flavorful apple cake. Give it a try - it's a treat!
