To start, you’ll need butter, sugar, vanilla, eggs, milk, and self-raising flour. These are common ingredients you likely have at home. Together, they make a moist, tasty cake that goes well with the apples.

Now, it’s time to layer the cake. Spread some batter in the pan first. Add a layer of apples on top. Keep layering batter and apples until you’ve used them up.
To finish, sprinkle flaked almonds on the cake. They add a nice crunch. It contrasts well with the cake and the apple’s sweetness.
To elevate your cake, add an almond glaze. Mix powdered sugar, almond extract, and milk until it’s runny. Drizzle the glaze over the cake. Let it set. The almond glaze enhances the cake, making it even better.
After topping your cake, bake it. It should bake for 45-50 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan before moving it to a plate for serving.
