Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 cups peeled and diced apples
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Cream cheese frosting (store-bought or homemade)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk.
Fold in diced apples and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting with cream cheese frosting.
Slice the cake into squares and serve.
