Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Apple Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or cooking spray. Dust with flour to prevent sticking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the large eggs, then add vegetable oil and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the chopped apples into the wet mixture, then gradually pour it into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the surface.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
