My recipe for Sunken Apple Cake is just like Oma’s Apple Cake. Also known as Versunkener Apfelkuchen or German Kuchen, this is an easy and sweet rustic treat to make from scratch.
Step 2: Then, in a medium mixing bowl beat together the butter, sugar, and eggs until creamy. Stir in the flour, baking powder, and vanilla until well mixed.
Step 5: Next, generously sprinkle the top of the authentic German Kuchen with a combination of sugar and cinnamon.
Bake the cake until it the top is golden in color and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
