Marie-Helene's Apple Cake for French Friday's with Dorie

Yum. Make that apple RUM cake. This ends up being chunks of apple just held together by the barest bit of buttery rummy batter.

And it works.What more can I say? The apples look like a tile mosaic in the slice of cake, they are packed together so...When I mixed the apples into the batter, I was thinking: uh oh. I did it again. Too many apples for the batter.

WRONG.

This cake is so simple and so fabulous...everyone should know how to make it.

I made an apple cake recipe last weekend. Like yours it's just the littlest bit of buttery batter holding together a lot of diced apples. A lot of 'em. But instead of rum flavors it's the cinnamon-nutmeg thing and there's a caramel topping. I'm going to make it again soon, get a nice picture and post the recipe on my blog.
