TIPS
To Peel Or Not To Peel Apples
Whether or not to peel the apples depends, in my opinion, on the recipe and the apples. We kept the peels on for my apple crumble, and it turned out perfectly. They were peeled for this cake. Cooked apple peels can occasionally become a little crunchy and rough. So, the choice is entirely yours; I believe you can choose either.
FAQs AND QUESTIONs
What Kind Of Apples Do I Need To Use?
Crisp and tart apples are the ideal variety for this cake recipe. I made use of Granny Smiths. To find out if there are any other apples you may use, check out my piece on the best apples for baking.
Compared to soft apples, granny smiths will maintain their shape better. They won’t go mushy and melt in the cake. Baked apples with a softer starting quality often end up mushy.
