Ingredients for Apple and Cinnamon Cake
- 7.1 oz cream cheese
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 12 oz Golden Delicious apples (Sliced)
- 1 tsp cinnamon powder (+ for decoration)
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 packet baking powder
- 1 Golden Delicious apple (Sliced for decoration)
- as needed powdered sugar (For decoration)
Tools
- 1 Bowl
- 1 Whisk
- 1 Parchment paper
- 1 Springform pan
- 1 Sieve
Steps
In a large bowl, pour the cream cheese with the eggs and mix the ingredients well. Add the sugar and continue mixing the ingredients.
Then sift the flour and add it in small doses, always mixing the batter with a whisk, making sure no lumps form. Gradually add the oil, the teaspoon of cinnamon, and finally the sifted baking powder. Mix all the ingredients well.
Finally, prepare the apples: wash them, peel them, and slice them. Once ready, add them to the batter. Pour everything into a 22 cm springform pan, with the bottom lined with parchment paper. I usually use a springform pan, especially for soft cakes, so there are no problems when removing the cake once cooked, available here.
Decorate the surface of the cake with apple slices and sprinkle with cinnamon, bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 40 minutes. The baking time is indicative, always adjust based on your oven. Before removing from the oven, always do the toothpick test; once cooled, dust with powdered sugar…
And enjoy the treat!

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Can I use yogurt instead of cream cheese?
Yes, you can also use yogurt, but Greek yogurt is preferable due to its consistency, similar to cream cheese. Other types of yogurt may be too liquid for this batter.
