Notes

• You can skip the cinnamon powder and add only vanilla essence but I always felt apples are not generally very aromatic

• If you are adding cinnamon powder, I prefer not adding vanilla essence

• You can reduce the quantity of sugar of the apples are sweet

• I add 1/2 a grated apple as well to the batter, so it was super soft with small pieces coming in midst of a bite
