2 cups white sugar

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
2 medium Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 inch Bundt pan.

Drizzle over the warm cake. I like to place a sheet of aluminum foil under the cooling rack to catch the drips for easy clean up.

APPLE BOURBON BUNDT CAKE



Apple Bourbon Bundt Cake image

One of my favorite pie alternatives is bundt cake. A hearty spice-filled bundt cake made from grated apples and toasted nuts, then soaked in whiskey syrup, defies the cliché of Thanksgiving dessert, yet keeps well within its harvest-time paradigm. Plus, a bundt cake, which is really just like an oversize muffin baked in a fancy pan, is easy to whip up. The booze bath helps keep it fresh, meaning you can bake it ahead and eat the leftovers for days.

Categories     cakes, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 sticks unsalted butter 226 grams, at room temperature, plus more to grease pan
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 315 grams, plus more to dust the pan
3 tablespoons (30 grams) plus 1/2 cup (80 grams) bourbon or rye whiskey
1/2 cup (90 grams) candied ginger, chopped
1 3/4 cup (330 grams) light brown sugar
4 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons (8 grams) baking powder
1 teaspoon (5 grams) baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons (3 grams) ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon (5 grams) fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 cup (227 grams) sour cream
1 tablespoon (15 grams) vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoon (5 grams) finely grated lemon zest
2 medium Granny Smith apples about a pound, 454 grams, peeled, cored, and coarsely grated
1 cup (120 grams) finely chopped, toasted pecans
1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon (20 grams)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan. In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons bourbon and the candied ginger. Let stand 10 minutes.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the brown sugar and remaining butter on medium-high speed, until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time, until incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining flour with the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream and vanilla. Pour in the bourbon from the ginger mixture (reserve ginger) and whisk until smooth. Stir in zest.
  • With the mixer on medium speed, add the dry mixture and sour cream mixture to the wet mixture in three additions, alternating between the two. Fold in the ginger, apples and pecans. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until the cake is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the cake comes out dry, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Cool in the pan 20 minutes, then run a paring knife around the sides of the pan to release the cake; cool, flat side down, on a wire rack.
  • While the cake cools, combine the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup whiskey in a small saucepan. Over low heat, gently stir until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the lemon juice and take off the heat.
  • While the cake cools, make 10 slits on top with a paring knife and pour half the bourbon-sugar mixture on the still-warm cake. When the cake is fully cool, flip it and pour the rest of the glaze on the other side, then flip again to serve.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 lb apple, peeled, cored and chopped into about 1/3-inch cubes (can use more apples if desired)
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
1 cup white sugar
3 large eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup butter (no subs!)
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup half-and-half cream
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Set oven to 350°F.
  • Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
  • Grease a 12-cup bundt pan.
  • In a bowl, sift flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the flour mixture into the Bundt pan and tilt pan to coat.
  • In another bowl, place the chopped apples and 2 tablespoons of the flour mixture; toss to coat.
  • In another bowl combine 1-1/4 cups brown sugar, 1 cup white sugar, vegetable oil, eggs and vanilla; beat with an electric mixture until combined and thick (about 4 minutes).
  • Gradually beat in the remaining flour mixture until combined.
  • Fold in the chopped apple mixture and pecans into the batter.
  • Transfer to prepared bundt pan.
  • Bake for about 1 hour or until the cake tests done.
  • Transfer the cake to a rack then prepare the caramel glaze.
  • To make the glaze: melt butter in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  • Whisk in 1 cup brown sugar then the half and half or cream.
  • Continue whisking until the glaze is smooth and comes to a boil.
  • Add in 1 teaspoon vanilla, and remove from heat.
  • Spoon about 1/4 cup of the hot glaze over the warm cake that is still in the pan.
  • Let the cake sit for 15-20 minutes to absorb the glaze.
  • Turn the cake onto a platter, then pour the remaining glaze over the cake.
  • Let stand until cool (at least 1 hour) before slicing.

Tips:

  • Make sure your apples are peeled and thinly sliced. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from getting mushy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the cake.
  • While the cake is still hot, poke holes in the top with a toothpick. This will help the caramel glaze to soak into the cake.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help to prevent the glaze from running off the cake.

Conclusion:

This apple harvest pound cake with caramel glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet, buttery caramel glaze. It's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
