- 2 teaspoons baking powder

- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- A pinch of salt
- 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (to prevent apple slices from browning)

Instructions
- Preheat the oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9-inch (23cm) round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Prepare the apples:
- Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Toss the slices in a bowl with the lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.
- Mix the wet ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, granulated sugar, and eggs. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients:
- Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using) to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.
- Incorporate the oil and vanilla:
- Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract to the batter. Mix until the batter is smooth and homogenous.
- Fold in the apples:
- Gently fold the apple slices into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the pan:
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake the cake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Cool the cake:
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve:
- Once the cake is cool, dust it with powdered sugar if desired. Slice and serve your moist and fluffy Gâteau au Yaourt aux Pommes.
