Provided by Kris

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Apple Dessert Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup butter, chilled and diced
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts
3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup butter, room temperature
1 ½ cups white sugar
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
16 ounces plain low-fat yogurt
2 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and finely diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a Bundt cake pan.
  • To make streusel: In a medium bowl, mix brown sugar, 3/4 cup flour, and cinnamon. Cut in the butter with a fork until crumbly. Stir in walnuts.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together 3 1/4 cups flour, baking powder, and baking soda. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Then stir in the vanilla and yogurt. Gently stir in the flour mixture just until blended.
  • Pour 3 cups of the batter into the Bundt pan, sprinkle with 1/4 of the streusel, and layer with apples. Sprinkle with 1/2 the remaining streusel. Pour in the remaining batter, and top with the remaining 1/4 streusel. Lightly pat the top layer of streusel so it sticks to the cake batter.
  • Bake 50 to 60 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack 15 minutes. Place cookie sheet over pan and carefully invert both. Remove Bundt pan, and let the cake cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cinnamon: Ground cinnamon is a key ingredient in this cake, so make sure to use a good quality one. Look for Ceylon cinnamon, which has a sweeter and more delicate flavor than Cassia cinnamon.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a bundt pan for a classic look: A bundt pan is a great way to get a classic, elegant look for your cake. If you don't have a bundt pan, you can also use a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • Don't overbake the cake: Overbaking the cake can result in a dry, crumbly texture. Check the cake for doneness after the minimum baking time, and remove it from the oven when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set properly.

Conclusion:

This apple cinnamon streusel cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist, tender crumb, sweet and tangy apples, and crunchy streusel topping, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
