Passover Apple Cake
If I remember correctly, my mother discovered this recipe in one of her cookbooks and added it to her Pesach repertoire sometime in the early 80s. It is absolutely excellent, and does not taste like Pesach cake at all. It is ‘gebrokts’ (uses matzah products in the recipe) and is especially excellent hot out of the oven (what isn’t??) Be sure to let me know if you make it and tell me how it is!

This cake is delicious! We served it at our Seder last night. It was really easy to make. The batter comes out really thick (do not be tempted to add in more liquid, the juices from the filling will take care of any moisture needed) I used both green and red peeled apples and chopped them a bit in the food processor (careful not to puree them)and sprinkled nuts in bigger chunks than the ones you show on the picture. I then used a deep cookie cutter and served the cake in small cupcake cups to make it fancier and fun! I have a picture if you would like to add it to the post. Thanks for sharing Laura!
