Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F). Grease and flour a baking pan.
Prepare Apples: Chop the apples into small dice and set aside.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the eggs and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, pinch of salt, milk, seed oil, and lemon zest. Mix well.
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.
Fold in Apples: Gently fold the chopped apples into the batter until evenly distributed.
Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving Suggestions
Dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Cooking Tips
Ensure the apples are evenly chopped for uniform baking.
You can add a handful of chopped nuts or raisins to the batter for extra texture and flavor.
