Apple, Raisin and Pine Nut Cake is a dessert that never goes out of style. Soft and fragrant, the kind of cake that feels like home, perfect for slow breakfasts and family snacks, perhaps accompanied by a good tea. Also try the amazing apple cake and the apple amaretti and chocolate cake, or the spoon apple cake.
The combination of apples and raisins is a classic, with apples making the batter moist and soft, while raisins add natural sweetness and a pleasant texture. Every bite is a burst of flavor; try it and you’ll fall in love!
It’s perfect in the fall and winter when apples are at their best. I recommend golden apples, but you can use whichever you prefer, and if you don’t like raisins, you can simply omit them. A big kiss till the next recipe! Follow me on my social channels on Facebook Instagram and YouTube.

How to Make Apple, Raisin and Pine Nut Cake

In a large bowl, break the eggs, add the sugar and lemon zest.
Pour in the melted butter and milk gradually, then incorporate the flour and baking powder.
Peel the apples and slice them fairly thinly. Next, pour the mixture into a baking pan lined with parchment paper or buttered and floured, about 9 inches.
At this point, decorate the surface with the apples and sprinkle with raisins (soaked for about ten minutes in warm water), complete with pine nuts.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 35 minutes. If you see it starting to darken too much, cover it with aluminum foil for the last 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve with a dusting of powdered sugar.
