Even just for the scent of apples and cinnamon that floods the house. Soft, or rather very soft, it is cooked in a skillet, making it perfect when it’s very hot, allowing you to enjoy apple cake without turning on the oven. Actually, I prepare it even in winter because it’s too good! Let’s roll up our sleeves and prepare the skillet apple cake.

Break the eggs and beat them with the sugar using the electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy. While still mixing, gradually add the vegetable oil. Sift the flour with the baking powder and add it to the eggs, alternating with the milk. Finish with the grated lemon peel, the strained juice of half a lemon, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until smooth.
