This is a cake which you want to have it with a cup of coffee or milk. This is the cake which you want on a stressful day. This is the cake which you want to dig in after your lunch. Get my point. This cake is so close and homy.
No Fussy frosting, Not too sweet, Not too buttery...Just plain, moderately sweetened cake with full of apples in it. You feel cozy after eating this..
I made this cake on one fine day after realizing that i had plenty of apples sitting in the corner of the fridge waiting to be consumed.I decided to create my own recipe and make a apple loaf cake out of it and hence this is born. This cake is somewhere a cross between a apple cake and a apple bread.Whatever, it taste yummy..

Thanks a lot for all the wonderful recipes. My son is allergic to milk and eggs. In this recipe is there any substitute we can use for curd and eggs. Thanks.
Aarthi
@LakshmiYou can use mashed bananas and soy milk for curd. Make sure you add a tsp of lemon juice too.
