EASY-AS-PIE APPLE CAKE



Easy-as-Pie Apple Cake image

The name of this cake is somewhat deceiving, since most apple cakes are easier than pie (which is actually never that easy if you're making it from scratch). In any case, it's a simple, excellent cake with a tender crumb, subtle spicing and soft pockets of fruit. Serve it plain, or with a dollop of ice cream, whipped cream or crème fraîche.

AMY'S APPLE BUNDT CAKE



Amy's Apple Bundt Cake image

I got this cake recipe from my grand-daughter Amy. It is very moist and damn good with a cup of coffee. Note: I reduce oil to 1/4 cup and increase apple sauce to 3/4 cup. You can also use Splenda for Baking (use 3/4 splenda for baking, instead of the 1 1/2 cups sugar).

Oma's Apfelkuchen (Grandma's Apple Cake) image

My husband's German family calls this Oma's apfelkuchen, which translates to "Grandma's apple cake." They've been sharing the recipe for more than 150 years. I use Granny Smith apples, but any variety works. -Amy Kirchen, Loveland, Ohio

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your cake a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
  • Peel and core your apples before grating them. This will help to ensure that your cake is smooth and free of lumps.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dry cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a greased and floured bundt pan. This will help to prevent the cake from sticking to the pan.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help to prevent the glaze from running off the cake.
