Without a doubt, the most delicious yoghurt cake I have ever eaten :). Light, fluffy, beautifully risen and incredibly tasty. Any seasonal fruit works wonderfully in this cake; I used apricots, which I found at a very good price. I also recommend baking it with strawberries
A French apple cake, the recipe itself comes from France. Delicate, moist and absolutely delicious, with a hint of rum and generous chunks of apple. Simply irresistible! Although it’s a simple cake made with basic ingredients, it has a certain French elegance about it ;).
