The Italian Rustic Apple Cake. This is another one of my rustic cakes that can be enjoyed for breakfast or as a dessert and best of all it can be put together quickly with just a whisk.
You could vary the fruit depending on your preference and use peaches, pears or plums, although I love to use apples in my version.
I sprinkle the top with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon, but you could also leave it plain and dust the top with icing sugar after it cools.
