To me, autumn equals apples! Especially in combination with vanilla and warm spices. That’s why I love this cake, as it has all my favorite autumn flavors.

The fresh taste of the apples is perfectly balanced by the vanilla cream and the warm spices. It just tastes amazing!

Happy baking <3

Day 1

Cinnamon Biscuit Base with Chai Spice:

  • 200 g Bastogne (cinnamon) biscuits
  • 85 g butter
  • 3 tsp chai spice (I use this chai/pumpkin spice recipe: 4 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp clove, 1 tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp allspice, 0.25 tsp cardamom)
  • a pinch of salt
  1. Put the biscuits in a plastic bag and crush them into crumbs with a rolling pin, or blend them into crumbs in a blender.
  2. Melt the butter and mix it with the biscuit crumbs, chai spice, and salt.
