For Cake:

  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter

  • 2 apples, peeled and sliced

  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter

  • 2 cups flour

  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp. baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp. salt

  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder

  • 2 tsp. cinnamon

  • pinch cardamon

  • 2/3 cup plain Greek yogurt, full fat

  • 1 tsp vanilla

  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil

  • 3 eggs


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350° F. Butter a 9”x13” baking pan and set aside.

Make Crumb Topping:

Combine sugars, salt, cinnamon, and flour in a medium bowl. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Set aside.

Make Cake:

Melt butter in a small sauce pan on medium heat. Add apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are golden brown, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat.

In a large bowl, whisk the yogurt and sugar. Add the flour and baking soda, then add the oil and eggs, whisking well after each addition. Stir the apple pieces into the batter.

Transfer batter to the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Using your hands, top the batter with the crumb topping, breaking it into chunks as you go, until evenly spread across batter.

Bake 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
