Fantastic recipe. A crowd pleaser for sure.

So I made this apple cake last night after a moment of insanity at the farmer's market and coming home with over 30 lbs of apples (I was hungry, what can I say?). I think it is wonderful cake (very pretty) and easy. However, tonight I am going to make two of these and I'm going to use orange zest instead of lemon in one and calvados in place of some of the milk in the other. It's a very mild cake and while it's beautiful- I want a little more pep. I may try throwing in some cranberries with the orange zest too.

This looks delicious. What size is the baking pan?

This looks wonderful and the photo is gorgeous. I'm sure it was challenging to write your first recipe in English, so congratulations on completing it - it's sure to become easier with time (and, I imagine, with Maria Teresa's kind assistance). Best of luck!

Can you be a little more specific on the ingredients and amounts? For the lemon - is that juice or peel? How much is a packet of baking powder, butter, and sugar (granulated, powdered or superfine sugar?) And the temperature for baking - is that Farenheit, or what?

Vigutto, this seems like a really nice recipe. Are you Italian or French? I think you might have looked up in a dictionary some words to translate your recipe and some words aren't maybe what you intended. If you would like to correct them, here are the words that need rewritten:
Old cropper, maybe you mean "an old farmer"
You BEAT eggs with sugar (not shake).
ADD or MIX IN the melted butter.
A part - On the side, or just move your text to a new step.
BUTTER AND FLOUR the pan (not soil - soil means to get dirty).
ADD THE SLICES OF APPLE PUSHING THEM INTO THE BATTER.
LET COOL instead of make it get cold.
DUST THE CAKE with sugar.
Hope this was useful and now I'm going to try your recipe. If you need any help translating your recipes you can contact me on mteresajorge@alice.it and I will help you. Buon apetito!
