Virginia’s Fresh Apple Cake

Advertisement

This recipe came straight from my Aunt Virginia’s kitchen, where fall meant fresh apples from the orchard and a house filled with warm cinnamon scent. Her apple cake was a constant at church potlucks, family dinners, and cozy afternoons with coffee. Moist, loaded with apple chunks, and kissed with spice, it’s the kind of old-fashioned dessert that never goes out of style. And the best part? It tastes even better the next day.
