The apple and raisin cake is a simple pantry dessert with a soft and moist texture inside, almost melting in your mouth. With just a few ingredients from your pantry, we will obtain a wholesome snack. Furthermore, this cake can also be prepared with rice flour, making it naturally gluten-free. I also recommend the oil-based apple cake, simple and light, while those with a sweet tooth can try the apple cake with mascarpone.
