Ingredients: 2 medium tart apples (Granny Smith), peeled, cored, diced; 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (for cake); ¼ cup turbinado or light brown sugar (divided: 2 tbsp + 2 tbsp); ⅓ cup all-purpose flour; 2 tablespoons poppy seeds; 1 large egg; ¼ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt; ½ teaspoon vanilla extract; ¼ teaspoon baking powder; ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt; pinch of ground cinnamon (for cake); pinch of ground clove (for compote); 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for compote); 1 tablespoon honey (for compote)

A simple, warm apple compote (cinnamon, clove, brown sugar) served alongside a tender, crumbly poppy seed pound cake. The cake stays moist from the compote, and the whole dessert feels effortless, German, and just sweet enough—no frosting, no fuss.
