Moist apple cake

It has been so long since I update my baking activities here. Well, I seldom get the chance to bake nowadays especially now when Karl just can't lay/sit still. And when he is asleep, I end up sleeping as well. Hahah...But last weekend my mum wanted to eat apple cake as she prefer cake that a little bit sour. So, we bought some green apple in the morning and that afternoon the cake is ready to be eaten.

The cake was super moist and not sweet at all..probably because I reduce the sugar and replaced the white sugar to brown sugar. Not as sour as my mum expect it to be but she love it. So..here's the recipe for those who want to try. The cake will be perfect for afternoon tea/coffee.

Ingredients:
* 3 cups of flour
* 1tsp of baking soda
*3 tsp ground cinnamon ( I just add 1 tsp because mom doesn't really like the smell of cinnamon)
*1/2 tsp ground nutmeg ( This is optional. I didn't add mine)
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 11/4 cup of vege oil
* 1/2 cup of greek yogurt ( or any type of yogurt. You can use sour cream too)
* 11/4 cup brown sugar
* 3 large eggs
* 1 tbsp vanilla extract
* 3 medium size green apple

Take two separate bowl. Add flour, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, baking soda and salt in one bowl.

Then in another bowl, you add the vege oil, yogurt and brown sugar.

Then add the eggs one by one. 

Add the dry ingredient into the wet ingredient. Mix the mixture well using a spatula.

Making sure there is no lump of flour in the mixture. I prepare to use spatula though some might want to use the electric mixture but at low speed. 

Then add the shredded apple...

 Prepare the baking tray and line it with baking sheet. Pour the cake mixture into the tray & even it up. Bake the cake in a 180C for 55 to 75min. Yeah..this cake take longer time to bake but once you taste the cake, you know that it's worth the wait. Hehhehe...


Here is the cake. Sorry, x sempat ambik gambar dah kenak cekup some of the cake. Hhehehe.

The cake remain moist even when u keep it in the fridge. Happy trying folks!
