Time 1h30m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 cups chopped apples
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon flour
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely chopped nuts (I use walnuts)
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 eggs
3 cups flour (all purpose or whole wheat)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 -2 teaspoon milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F; grease a 12-cup Bundt pan or a 10x4-inch tube pan.
  • Prepare apple-nut filling: Cook all ingredients, except nuts, over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook until apples are tender. This will take approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in nuts. Set aside.
  • Combine sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Beat at medium speed, 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
  • Alternately add the dry ingredients and the sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat well between each addition on low speed.
  • Spread 1/3 of the batter (about 2 cups) in the baking pan. Top with 1/3 of the filling. Repeat this pattern 2 more times, until all batter and filling have been used.
  • Bake at 325°F for 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then turnout onto a serving plate and cool completely.
  • To prepare glaze: Mix all ingredients until smooth, then drizzle over cooled coffee cake.

Time 40m

Yield 9-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 apple
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup walnuts
1/4 cup brown sugar
butter
cinnamon

Steps:

  • Grease pan.
  • In a bowl, stir together dry ingredients.
  • In a large bowl, beat together shortening and sugar. Add egg and vanilla.
  • Core, peel and chop the apple.
  • Stir ½ of the flour mixture into the sugar mixture.
  • Add the sour cream and then the rest of the flour.
  • Stir in apple.
  • Spread evenly in pan.
  • Chop the nuts.Mix with cinnamon, brown sugar and butter. Sprinkle on top.
  • Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prep Work: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all your ingredients. This will ensure that you have everything you need and that the baking process goes smoothly.
  • Proper Mixing: Creaming butter and sugar together until light and fluffy is crucial. This step incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a tender and moist cake.
  • Fold Gently: When combining the dry ingredients with the wet, use a spatula to gently fold them together. Overmixing can toughen the batter.
  • Apple Preparation: For the best flavor and texture, use a combination of sweet and tart apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn. Peel and slice the apples thinly so they cook evenly.
  • Spices and Nuts: Feel free to adjust the spices and nuts according to your preference. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice are classic choices, but you can also add cardamom or ginger for a unique twist. Walnuts, pecans, or a combination of both add a delightful crunch.
  • Baking Time and Temperature: The baking time may vary depending on your oven and the size of your loaf pan. Keep an eye on the cake during the last few minutes of baking to prevent overbaking.
