One of my favorite things to do is cook or bake with my cast iron cookware, so for this week’s “Pinspired” recipe I’ve made a brown sugar cinnamon apple skillet cake. This moist spice cake with sliced apples is amazing! The crust has a lovely texture from being baked in a cast iron skillet. The cinnamon sugar on top of the apples adds a nice flavor to the apples. With fall almost here, there’s no better time to try a new cake to add a little spice to your day. I hope you enjoy this cake as much as I did! The original Pin can be found here.
