Ingredients:

- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk

- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Serves: 8-10
Cooking Tips:
- Use room temperature butter and eggs for best results.
- Be sure to chop the apples and walnuts into small pieces for even distribution throughout the cake.
- You can use any type of apple you like, but we recommend using Granny Smith apples for their tartness.
Instructions:

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
5. Fold in the chopped apples and walnuts.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and sprinkle with cinnamon.
7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
