This easy cake makes for a very dense result—perfect for picnics or a substantial teatime treat. It is also delicious with pitted and sliced peaches, apricots, or plums. For maximum moisture, I would definitely recommend you use fruit that has plenty of juice, so in the case of apples I would choose ones that are sweet and juicy. You can vary the depth of the baking pan to achieve a different overall texture.
