French Apple Cake

Finally went apple picking in Julian! Another thing checked off my bucket list✔️. Half the fun is finding recipes to use up all the pears and apples we brought home.

We went to Apple Starr Orchards, an organic pear and apple orchard.

It was pretty expensive- 2 bags for $40, but you do get a lot of fruit, and a good variety.

The first recipe I decided on was a French Apple cake. I found many similar recipes online. This rustic cake's ingredients include the bakery pantry staples- flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, butter, eggs. It also called for rum, but I used imitation rum extract instead because that's what I had on hand. 

Bon appetit!
