Description

Easy Apple Cinnamon Sheet Cake is a moist, warmly spiced fall dessert made with fresh apples and simple pantry ingredients. With no mixer and one bowl, this cinnamon apple cake is perfect for lazy weekend baking or sharing at gatherings — easy, cozy, and absolutely delicious.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1½ tsp ground cinnamon

  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg

  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ¾ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2½ cups chopped apples, peeled and cored


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

  • In another bowl, whisk eggs, oil, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla until smooth.

  • Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

  • Fold in chopped apples evenly.

  • Spread batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.

  • Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  • Let cool in the pan for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use a combination of sweet and tart apples for the best flavor.

Avoid overmixing to maintain a soft, tender crumb.

Add-ins like chopped nuts or a drizzle of glaze elevate the cake.

Serve warm with ice cream for an indulgent twist.
