For an extra layer of flavor, try using brown butter instead of regular softened butter. The nutty notes will enhance the spice cake beautifully. Consider adding 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture. To prevent the apples from sinking to the bottom of the cake, toss them with a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the batter. This cake tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have had time to meld together. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
