Sponge cake with apples: A simple cake for autumn
Not only pumpkins but plum and apple cakes are sweet symbols of autumn. Apart from obvious delights such as apple pie, plum cake with crumble, or American-style pumpkin pie, some desserts are easy to prepare and yield wonderful results.
An example of such a dessert is a sponge cake with apples. Everyone is familiar with sponge cake; most can whip it up without a second thought. A cake enriched with apple slices becomes more moist yet still retains its fluffiness, and its soft interior will soak up the apple flavour and aroma. Sprinkle the whole with cinnamon, and it's ready.
