No wonder German apple cake is a beloved classic in Germany. Essentially it is poundcake with apples baked right in. Traditionally it does not contain cinnamon, however; that does not mean that can’t add a teaspoon of America’s favorite baking spice. Chef Eddy’s German Apple Cake recipe is one of those desserts that make it look like you spent forever in the kitchen - but it's really easy. The best kind of dessert recipe!
