I like apple cakes a lot, especially during fall, when I can buy Danish apples in the stores. For this recipe, I used the sort 'Red Aroma'.

Ingredients:

1/2 dl of rapeseed oil
1/2 dl of yoghurt
150 g of sugar
50 g of honey
vanilla extract

50 g of finely chopped hazelnuts (or pecans)
125 g of flour
1/2 tsp of baking powder
1/2 tsp of cinnamon
1/4 tsp of cardamom
1/4 tsp of cloves
1/4 tsp og dried ginger
2 egs
375 g of diced apples

Mix the first five ingredients together. Blend the flour, spices and baking powder. Whip the eggs into the sugar mixture. Add the flour mixture and give it all a good whisk. Finally, add the chopped hazelnuts.
Pour the mixture into a buttered baking tin and top it off with the apple dices. Or, alternatively, mix the apples with the rest, before pouring it into the tin. As you can see, I used the first approach, but I would probably mix apples into the dough next time around. That way, I think the cake will be more moist.

Bake it at 175 C for about an hour.

Serve with a good dollop of greek yoghurt or sour cream! (Or whipped cream or... )
