🍂Apple Walnut Cake - Mabon🍂
Hello, my greenies! I have a cake that I love to bake for Mabon. It is my grandmothers recipe, but I’ve added some of my witchy goodness and my own touches in it too. I’m so excited for this and have gotten a new dress for this holiday too! I hope you all have a great time and if you make this, don’t hesitate to tell me!
½ stick of butter, softened
around 1 tbsp on cinnamon (2 ½ tbsps = 1 tbsp)
2 medium apples (peeled & diced) - NOT minced or shredded!
Preheat the oven for 350°F
Mix flour and baking soda in a separate bowl.
Mix milk, brown sugar, eggs, butter, and half the cinnamon together.
Then, sift the dry ingredients into the wet ones, put in vanilla, and mix in both the apples and walnuts.
Cover a 9 inch pan in crisco and put mix into it.
In a separate bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Blanket the top with the cinnamon sugar mix.
Bake for about 40-45 minutes.
After I place it in the oven, I say a little chant and prayer.
“Oh earth and wind and water,
I am but your body.
Heal and protect me from harm.
Give my family, my friends, and myself
your gifts and your strength.”
I also play my Mabon playlist (lol) while I bake and do some ritual dancing. It’s a really fun time and once the cake is done, I usually pair it with a cider. It might smell good, but definitely let it cool, at least slightly.
If you are planning to serve at a party, I think it would be cute to make a little flower out of apple slices and place in the middle. This is just my thoughts though!
I really hope you all like it and have a happy Mabon!
*sometimes I decide to roast the walnuts for about 1 minute in a pan before I mix them in, this is just a little extra thing I do if I have time/want to do that*
