 Melt-in-Your-Mouth Apple Milk Cake
Description

This ultra-soft apple cake is light, moist, and gently custard-like inside. Thanks to fresh apples, eggs, and milk, it practically dissolves on your tongue. Perfect for breakfast, tea time, or a simple dessert when you want something homemade without stress.

 Ingredients (8–10 servings)

  • 3 medium apples (sweet or slightly tart)

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 glass milk (200–250 ml / about 1 cup)

  • 150 g sugar (¾ cup)
