CAROLYN'S APPLE PUDDING CAKE



Carolyn's Apple Pudding Cake image

Is there anything nicer than the smell of apples and cinnamon? This is such a comforting dessert. Easy to make and low in fat too. You probably already have everything at hand. A good friend gave this to me many moons ago. I believe she got it from a women's group in Meaford Ontario. This is also terrific baked in individual ramekins or onion soup bowls. For a change of pace, try adding raisins or whole cranberries to the apples prior to pouring on the batter.

MAPLE-APPLE PUDDING CAKE



Maple-Apple Pudding Cake image

I got this recipe from a cooking magazine-the sauce forms in the bottom of the dish and the fruit studded cake rises to the top. I have not made this yet but will soon-will probably substitute pecans for the walnuts if I use nuts at all. My son is not a fan.

SOMERSET APPLE PUDDING CAKE



Somerset Apple Pudding Cake image

This is a recipe given to me about 30 years ago by a friend living in Somerset, England. It is extremely easy to make, but the finished cake looks very professional. The ingredients can be doubled or even trebled and the result is always good. Originally, I was given the recipe using only one egg, but the resulting cake is far too small, particularly when entertaining. Sometimes, I vary the sugar in the pastry and substitute light brown sugar flavoured with vanilla, which is available in French supermarkets. I melt the butter in my microwave in a bowl and then complete the pastry in the bowl.

PEAR PUDDING CAKE (OR APPLE, PEACH...) IN CROCK-POT



Pear Pudding Cake (Or Apple, Peach...) in Crock-Pot image

This is a simple crockpot recipe I got from another mom. If your crockpot cooks hot, I recommend a shorter time and checking it periodically. I did mine on high and it started burning around the edges at 2 1/2 hours. All I had to serve with it was powdered sugar and my 5 yo gobbled down 2 pieces, asking for more!

For the cake batter:
2 c. all-purpose flour
2/3 c. granulated sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 c. cold butter, cut in small cubes

1 T. fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • CAKE BATTER: In a mixing bowl, combine flour 2/3 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, and 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon. Cut butter in with a pastry blender, two knives, or your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk until just moistened. Spray a 4-quart or 5-quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Spread batter into the bottom of the slow cooker; sprinkle chopped apples evenly over batter. PUDDING MIXTURE: In a small bowl, combine apple cider, honey, melted butter, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Pour over apples and cake batter. Do not stir.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful apples. This will give your cake the best possible flavor.
  • Peel and core your apples before grating them. This will make the grating process easier and prevent the peels from getting into your cake.
  • Grate your apples finely. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the cake batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set properly.

Conclusion:

This apple pudding cake 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, apple-y filling. It is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
