  • - Hey, everyone, it's Natasha of NatashasKitchen.com.

  • Meet your new favorite apple cake.

  • It's soft, moist, and so easy with just six ingredients.

  • Perfect for last minute company.

  • (eggs breaking) In the bowl of your mixer,

  • combine six large, room temperature eggs

  • and beat on high speed for one minute or until foamy.

  • Gradually add one cup of sugar,

  • and continue beating on high speed for eight to 10 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.

  • Then in a medium bowl, whisk together one and a third

  • cups of flour and half a teaspoon of baking powder.

  • Now peel, core, and chop three granny smith apples.

  • We love granny smith apples for this,

  • but any crisp, sweet tart apple will work.

  • (light music playing)

  • Chop those into about a quarter-inch thick pieces.

  • (light music playing)

  • The mixer has been going for about eight or nine minutes.

  • Notice that a thick and fluffy ribbon

  • forms when you pull up the whisk.

  • It's just right.

  • Quickly fold in one teaspoon of real vanilla extract

  • for a little extra flavor and mix just until blended.

  • It's important not to overmix this batter,

  • because you're relying on the volume

  • of the eggs for the cake to rise.

  • Now sift in the flour mixture in thirds

  • folding between each addition,

  • and scrape from the bottom of the bowl to

  • make sure you don't miss any pockets of flour.

  • Continue folding just until all of the flour's incorporated

  • and you no longer see streaks of flour.

  • Now add most of your diced apples

  • reserving about one cup for the top.

  • Fold just until combined.

  • You'll need a nine inch, ungreased, springform pan,

  • and I have the bottom lined with a ring of parchment paper.

  • Transfer all of the batter into the

  • pan gently smoothing out the top.

  • Now scatter the remaining one cup of

  • chopped apple evenly over the top.

  • Transfer it to the oven right away,

  • and bake at 350 degrees fahrenheit for 50 to 55 minutes

  • or until the top is a beautiful, golden brown.

  • Oh yes, this rose beautifully,

  • and it smells so good.

  • I love that.

  • So this has been sitting for about

  • 15 minutes in the cake pan.

  • Then you wanna take a thin-edged spatula

  • and just run it around the sides.

  • To loosen it up from the pan.

  • Easy easy.

  • (light music playing)

  • Look at that.

  • (giggles)

  • SO tall and impressive,

  • but so easy.

  • And before serving, I love to dust

  • it with lots of powdered sugar.

  • Yes, and this cake is not overly

  • sweet so feel free to go crazy.

  • (giggles)

  • No one's gonna complain.

  • Okay, let's get a big slice here.

  • Ooh, it's so soft and delicate.

  • Yum yum.

  • You guys have to take a look inside.

  • Ooh, look at that.

  • Fluffy perfection.

  • Yum, cannot wait to eat this.

  • Clean up a little bit.

  • Look at that.

  • (light music playing)

  • Look at how tall it is,

  • and it's loaded with apples.

  • Let's get a generous bite of this.

  • (light music playing)

  • (moaning)

  • You guys, this is absolutely delicious.

  • It's a classic for good reason.

  • You've got that super fluffy melt in your mouth, airy cake,

  • and every bite is loaded with that tart granny smith apple.

  • This is a winner,

  • and it's so easy.

  • It's perfect for breakfast, brunch,

  • or a really quick and easy cake for unexpected guests.

  • This is a keeper.
