Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F (177C). Line an 11 by 5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

Now, peel and core the apples. Take the mandoline, place the whole apple on it with the guard on top, and slice each apple into 1/8 inch rings (refer to my video if needed). You can also slice them thinly with a knife but the final result won't be as good.

Step 3

Set the sliced apples aside and begin to work on the cake batter.

Step 4

In a big bowl, add the two eggsand sugar. With a mixer, mix until the batter thickens and is nice and pale (1-2 min).

Step 5

Next, add in the warmed milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Mix.

Step 6

Lastly, add in the dry ingredients which are flour, salt, baking powder, and optionally, cinnamon.

Step 7

Mix until combined and toss in the sliced apples making sure to coat each one.

Step 8

With clean hands, take a few apples at a time from the bowl and start arranging them into the loaf pan making sure to layer them evenly until the loaf pan is full to the top.

Step 9

When you place the coated apple rings in the pan, you will be left with a little bit of extra batter. Pour the remaining batter on top and give the pan a shake.

Step 10

Optionally, you can add thinly sliced almonds on top or bake as it. I like adding almonds for presentation, but you don't have to.
