- Peel and core the remaining half apple, slice it, and arrange the slices on top of the batter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute margarine with butter in this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute margarine with an equal amount of unsalted butter. The flavor may be slightly richer with butter, which is a great option for this cake.
How should I store the leftover Fruity Apple and Walnut Cake?
Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can refrigerate it for up to a week or freeze it for up to 3 months.
What should I do if my cake doesn't rise?
Ensure that your baking powder is fresh, as expired leavening agents can cause cakes not to rise properly. Mix the ingredients well and avoid overmixing, which can lead to a dense cake.
