Ingredients:

  • 2-3 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt
  • Optional: a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg for flavor

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan thoroughly.
  2. Prepare Apples and Raisins: Peel, core, and slice the apples. Sprinkle the apple slices and raisins evenly in the greased bundt pan.
  3. Prepare the Batter:
    • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
    • Stir in the vanilla extract.
    • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
    • Mix until just combined.
  4. Assemble: Pour the batter over the apples and raisins in the bundt pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly over the fruit.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, slice and serve.

Tips:

  • You can sprinkle some cinnamon or nutmeg over the apples and raisins for an extra flavor boost.
  • Serving with a dusting of powdered sugar or a simple glaze would add a nice touch.
