I married into this recipe. My very first time visiting my husband\u2019s grandma Gisela (Gisi, to us), she made this unbelievably delicious apple cake. I don\u2019t even like cooked apples, but I politely took a piece and LOVED it!!! <\/em><\/p>\n

With all of my heart, I believe we need to carry the recipes of the ones we love forward into new generations. I\u2019ve featured recipes from both of my grandmas, my aunts and my mom here on the Easybaked blog, and I knew that this recipe needed to be shared with the world. Last week, grandma Gisi patiently explained her recipe (translated from German) so that I could try it, and the results made me smile. <\/p>\n

This was how she greeted us on our visit last week- the birthday we were celebrating was my husband\u2019s.<\/em><\/p>\n

Grandma Gisi grew up in Neumarkt, a town in Bavaria, Germany. Her aunt Minni used to make this cake, and now she has made it for her own family occasions for years. To me, it feels like shortbread or butter cookies with a big sweet layer of tart apples in the middle. Is it a cake? A torte? It\u2019s like nothing I\u2019ve ever had before and it\u2019s delicious! <\/p>\n
