Directions
French Apple or Peach Cake,Sweet and rich!,This is a cobbler like cake that went together easily and was very tasty. I made several changes but still kept to the concept of the recipe. used a combination of frozen raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. I reduced the sugar by half in the berries and sprinkled them with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and allspice. A whole cup of sugar would have been way too sweet. used the juice from only half a small lemon and it was still quite noticable I would reduce it further. In the cake I cut the sugar to 1/3 cup we liked that level of sweetness – though I think the 1/2 cup would be fine too. I added 1 tsp vanilla and a 1/2 tsp almond extract – I would increase the almond next time especially if making a peach cake. Without the flavorings this would have been very bland. The cake has a slightly course texture that was fine with the berries – DH thought it might have been too dry if I’d used the apples. I served it with lightly sweetened whipped cream. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe, I will be trying it again with other fruit. MAde for ZWT5 for the Cooks With Dirty Faces.
