Quick 3-Minute Apple Cake

Prepare the Batter:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, a pinch of salt, and 4 tablespoons of sugar until well combined.
Add the zest of one lemon and the melted butter, then mix thoroughly.
Sift in the flour and baking powder, stirring until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Prepare the Apples:
Peel and finely chop the 3 apples into small pieces. Add the apple pieces to the batter, folding them in gently.
If using, fold in some chopped walnuts for extra texture.
Bake the Cake:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F) with both upper and lower heat.
Pour the batter into a greased or lined cake pan and smooth out the top.
Bake for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:

Drizzle with caramel sauce for a rich, sweet topping.

Cooking Tips:

Make sure to chop the apples into small pieces for even distribution throughout the cake.
Use fresh lemon zest to add a bright, citrusy flavor to the batter.
If you like a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon to complement the apples.
Let the cake cool slightly before slicing to prevent it from falling apart.
To avoid over-baking, start checking for doneness around the 40-minute mark.
