Experience The Sweet Taste Of Ireland With This Traditional Irish Apple Cake

Spray a 9-inch round pan with cooking spray.

In a bowl, combine 2 cups of flour and 2 teaspoons of baking powder.

Cut 1 stick (8 tablespoons) of butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Whisk in 2/3 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg into the flour and butter mixture.

Make a well in the center of the mixture.

Add 1 beaten egg, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/2 cup milk into the well and mix until the dough resembles scone dough.

Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan using a spatula.

Peel and slice 1 medium Granny Smith apple into thin slices.

Layer the apple slices on top of the dough in the pan.

Combine 1 tablespoon sugar with a dash of ground cloves and cinnamon, then sprinkle it over the apples.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 30 to 35 minutes.
