Creator Notes
This cake is reminiscient of 1 that my neighbor shared with me years up to now. We veteran to train about with every other, every bearing wedges of warm cake or pie, and chat for hours over mugs of loyal gloomy coffee. The immoral of this cake stays gentle and level-headed from the apples, while the originate air develops an practically caramelized, craggy crust that is cookie-like in texture. Each time I develop this cake, I be mindful crossing via our solar-dappled backyards as summer season transitioned into autumn, and the experiences my neighbor would command me about baking via the seasons in Germany. —Laura Edgerton
