How to Make

  • Step 4: Pour the batter into the cake pan.

  • Step 5: Arrange the sliced apples over the batter, fanning them out and pressing them lightly into the cake.

  • Step 6: FOR TOPPING: in a separate bowl, combine 1/4 cup butter with 1/2 cup flour, 1/3 cup sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom. Mix with a fork until crumbled. Pour the crumbles evenly over the top of the cake.

  • Step 7: Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the center of the cake is set and the top is golden brown. Remove from oven and cool slightly before serving.

  • Step 8: Serve warm, or cool completely and store in an airtight container until ready to eat.
