Add the flour, followed by the salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix gently but ensure there are no dry pockets.

Fold:

Delicately fold in the chopped apples and walnuts, ensuring they're distributed evenly throughout the batter.

Once baked to perfection, allow the cake to cool for about 15 minutes. Slice it into wedges and serve it up!

Relish the beautiful blend of apple and cinnamon with every bite.
