Irish Apple Cake Recipe
This homemade Irish apple cake is a dense and tender cake loaded with chunks of granny smith and golden delicious apples, finished with a simple vanilla custard sauce that takes the whole thing over the top. It takes me 15 minutes of prep and the flavors are absolutely incredible.
