APPLE CINNAMON BREAKFAST CAKE

I love baking with apples and cinnamon when the first hint of fall arrives. A few of my recipes are handed down through the generations, so I’m thinking that many of my relatives enjoyed baking with apples as well. This recipe is quick, easy, delicious and impressive. In a little more than an hour, you will have a bakery quality cake for breakfast or dessert.

I prepare fresh, organic foods from scratch and I never use milk or milk products. I have tons of exclusive dairy-free recipes, many are inspired by my Family's Polish and Italian Heritage. I can modify traditional recipes making them dairy-free and sometimes vegan or gluten free. I love to share my recipes, photographs, and stories and hope they are helpful to those with dairy allergies!
