Made a few changes, and I got a much healthier but super moist and delicious fresh apple cake (see the linked recipe below). I love making everything healthier without losing great flavor and texture, desserts are definitely one of them, especially I have such a sweet tooth :)

This cake was delicious and moist. I had trouble with the topping, not sure if I did not boil long enough or maybe too long. Topping was always a runny consistency. Enjoyed the cake even with topping that wasn't perfect.
