Buona Domenica,

This week, we begin a new series dedicated to desserts made with apples and pears. The first installment introduces a remarkable Italian apple cake.

This particular recipe comes from my grandmother's agenda from the 1950s, a time when food was still scarce. The recipe was an ingenious solution to this challenge: it calls for a simple batter that is complemented by a generous quantity of apples. It was an achievable dessert because apple trees in the countryside were so plentiful.

To see how this cake is made, and to discover the full list of recipes in this series, I invite you to watch the video and read the accompanying post.

You will also learn about the other recipes found in my grandmother's agenda, which provide a fascinating glimpse into the food of that era.
