Cinnamon Apple Cake – Cinnamon and apple have a nice little friendship, don’t they? They lift each other up like only true friends do. And while they’re completely different things when they’re apart, together they’re their own flavor entity: apple-cinnamon. Just speaking that word brings to mind the combo of cozy, warm spice and tender, sweet apples. And that combo (with an added sidekick of chopped walnuts for a bit of crunch) is just the pair to flavor a simple everyday cake like this one.
