Apple Spice Cake // One Lovely Life


Every so often, I post a recipe here that I just can’t seem to find the words to describe.

This is one of those recipes.

Please, may I beg you, implore you, beseech you, dear reader, to try this apple spice cake!!!

This isn’t your average apple cake. It isn’t your average spice cake. It is the heavenly best of both worlds.

Apple Spice Cake // One Lovely Life

It’s the most moist cake I have ever EVER made. The spice amounts may seem like a lot, but when you bake it, everything blends together in the most beautiful synergistic way.

I may also point out, that this cake is the PERFECT pair with my buttermilk syrup.

Again, I beg you… if you’re going to have this cake at all, have it right! Serve it with buttermilk syrup warm and gooey and you’ll kiss whoever is closest to you. (I suggest sitting by someone you like really well, otherwise this cake could make things a little awkward).

I MUST WARN YOU: Under no circumstances should you take a small bite of the cake and actually dip it into the container of warm, caramelly buttermilk syrup as though it were fondue. Not even when you’re just tasting the cake. Not even when you’re on your last bite. Not even when no one is looking. If you do it, you will never NOT be able to do it. Not that I know from experience…*cough*

      Minda – I haven’t tried it in mini bundt cakes yet. It’s pretty moist, so I think it might have a tendency to stick.

    OMG this cake is awesome!!!
    It is the best apple cake I’ve ever made. I’m going to finish it with browned butter buttercream but had to sneak a taste lol.

    Would it be likely this would work as a type of swiss roll? I know there’s recipes out there specifically for apple spice rolls, but this one always turns out so well, we’re hoping to keep to yours when trying it out. Thanks!

      Sky – That’s a great question! I’ve never made it as a swiss roll before, so I’m not totally sure. It’s definitely a moist cake, which could mean it’s more flexible for rolling. But it’s also on the sticky side, so I worry it might not hold its shape. If you do give it a go, I’d love to know how it turns out! 🙂

    Do you use cake flour or all purpose flour?
