Ginger-Flavored Apple Cake

The ginger-flavored apple cake is a variant of the classic apple cake, but with a ginger taste that I’m sure you’ll like.
I rarely use it in my recipes, but I realized I should do it more often because I really liked the result.
Moreover, ginger has many properties and is also used for diets and detox, although we’re talking about fresh ginger and I preferred to use powdered.
Follow this recipe for the apple cake variation and I’m sure you’ll repeat it often… it’s too good!

Follow everything and replicate it, then send me a photo, I’ll post it on my fb page in the folder dedicated to my recipes made by you.
