My daughter found this recipe for a special project at school when they were studying Rome. She got an A and she has made it countless amounts of time since. We double the topping which makes it even more yummy!! Thanks!!!!!

This looked sooo good that I really wanted to try it, however, I had to tweek slightly to make it gluten free; I replaced ordinary flour with my own gf flour mix #438139 and 1/2 a teaspoon of xanthan gum and it was as delicious as I expected it to be. Thank you for sharing.

Great apple cake, moist, tender and delicious. It was quick and easy to make, with excellent results. The flavor is lovely. I cut the recipe in half and it made a perfect cake for two. Made for What's on the Menu? Tag Game
