INGREDIENT NOTES:
APPLES:
- Apples are the basic ingredient for your cake. We will use them to make your cake sweet. Apples will also make your dessert soft. After baking, these apples will make your recipe very tasty. Use pears for another idea as well.
LEMON JUICE:
- Lemon is also the main flavor for your cake. We will use lemon juice to add a fresh feeling to your dessert. It can react with baking soda and make your cake lighter. The tanginess from lemon juice will also eliminate any excess sweetness of apples in your cake, too. You can also add orange juice here if you like.
LEMON ZEST:
- Adding lemon zest to your cake will give it a good citrus smell. The flavor of lemon will also become strong in your recipe. Here, you can also add orange zest if you prefer it.
ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR:
- This flour will make a proper shape for your cake. Also, it can make your cake soft as it bakes. Add whole wheat flour to your recipe as an alternative.
VEGAN MILK:
- Your cake batter will become smooth from it. Vegan milk will also add moisture to your cake. You can use other sort of plant milks for this as well.
VEGETABLE OIL:
- Vegetable oil is important for your cake because it can keep it soft after cooling down. It will also include moisture in your snack. Light olive oil or melted coconut oil is also an idea for your recipe.
SUGAR:
- Sugar can maintain any excess tanginess in your cake. It will also make your cake sweeter. Not only this, your snack will become softer from using this, too. Add maple syrup or coconut sugar for another option.
BAKING SODA AND BAKING POWDER:
- Your cake will become fluffy from using these ingredients. Also, your cake will bake properly by adding them.
VANILLA EXTRACT:
- Vanilla extract makes desserts like these a lot better. It improves the taste and smell of cakes as well. Another idea for your use can be almond extract.
