French Apple Pie Cake is a combination of two of the most loved desserts in the world - Apple pie and Cake. It is said that the origins of the apple pie date back to 14th century England, where the dessert was made with figs, raisins, and pears. As time went on, apples were added to the recipe, and the dessert became an American classic. The recipe has multiple variations varying from region to region. French Apple Pie Cake puts a spin on the traditional recipe, adding a layer of cake instead of a pie crust. The result is a mouth-watering blend of caramelized apples and cake that is perfect for any dessert lover.
