FRENCH APPLE CAKE



French Apple Cake image

With chunks of sweet apples nestled in a tender and buttery rum cake, this French apple cake is the essence of simplicity.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Desserts

Time 1h

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
⅔ cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling over cake
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons dark rum
2 baking apples, peeled, cored and cut into ½-inch cubes (I like Honeycrisp, Fuji or Granny Smith) (3½ - 4 cups chopped)
Confectioners' sugar (optional), for decorating cake

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch springform or regular cake pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray. If using a regular cake pan, line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper and grease again.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Using a handheld mixer with beaters or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well and scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and rum. Don't worry if the batter looks grainy at this point; that's okay. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the chopped apples.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and even the top. Sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool on a rack in the pan. Once cool, run a blunt knife around the edges of the cake. If using a springform pan, remove the sides. If using a regular cake pan, carefully invert the cake onto the rack, remove the parchment paper, then gently flip the cake over and place right-side-up on a platter. Using a fine sieve, dust with confectioners' sugar (if using). Cake can be served warm or room temperature, plain or with lightly sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
  • Freezer Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, wrap it tightly with aluminum foil or freezer wrap. Thaw overnight on the countertop before serving.

BUTTERED RUM APPLE PIE



Buttered Rum Apple Pie image

A twist on your basic apple pie! I usually make my own pie crust instead of using a pre-bought pastry shell. Or use one of the refrigerated ones that you do roll out. If you like your pies sweet, you may want to add a bit more brown sugar to the apples. Yummy served with butter rum ice cream!

Categories     Pie

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 9 inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup unsalted butter, divided
1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
7 1/2 cups granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (about 8 medium apples)
1 teaspoon lemon rind, grated
1 tablespoon lemon juice, fresh not bottled
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup light rum
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 unbaked 9 inch pie shell (I usually make my own or use a refrigerated pie crust)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large skillet over medium low heat; stir in the brown sugar, apples, lemon rind, lemon juice, and nutmeg. Cover, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until the apple is tender, stirring occasionally.
  • Combine the rum and cornstarch, stirring until smooth. Stir into the apple mixture; cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute or until thickened. Pour into pastry shell.
  • Combine flour and 1/2 cup sugar in a bowl; cut in the remaining 1/4 cup butter with a pastry blender or fork until the mixture is crumbly. Stir in the almonds. Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the apple mixture.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Add a little bit of lemon juice to the apples. This will help to prevent them from browning.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust. This will make it difficult for the pie to cook evenly.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
  • Reduce the temperature and continue baking the pie until the filling is bubbling and the crust is cooked through.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

Apple pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. This recipe for apple pie cake with butter rum sauce is a delicious twist on the traditional recipe. The cake is moist and flavorful, and the butter rum sauce is a perfect complement to the apples. If you're looking for a special dessert to impress your friends and family, this apple pie cake is sure to do the trick.
