Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples that hold their shape well when baked, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
- Peel and core the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent the cake from becoming soggy.
- Use fresh lemon juice: This will help to brighten the flavors of the apples and the cake.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.
