APPLE SPICE CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR GLAZE



Apple Spice Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze image

This is a very simple and quick apple cake that I make time and time again. Great on it's own - even better with a little dollop of freshly whipped cream. Make sure you let the glaze thicken well and SLOWLY pour the glaze onto the cake, giving it time to soak in.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup cinnamon-sugar mixture (for dusting cake pan)
4 apples, chopped small
3 eggs
1 cup canola oil
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees; grease a bundt pan or tube pan and coat with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  • Mix apples, eggs and oil with an electric mixer.
  • Add the flour, sugar, baking soda and cinnamon; mix well.
  • Pour into pan and bake about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Allow cake to cool in pan for at least 10 minutes; invert onto a cake plate.
  • To prepare Glaze; combine butter, brown sugar and milk in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute.
  • Spoon over cake, allow to cool before serving, ENJOY.

Tips:

  • Use a combination of all-purpose flour and cake flour for a tender and moist crumb.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and airy cake.
  • Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl before adding them to the wet ingredients. This will help to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Overmixing will result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x13-inch baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • While the cake is baking, make the brown sugar caramel glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Once the cake is done baking, allow it to cool for 10 minutes before pouring the glaze over the top. The glaze will set as the cake cools.

Conclusion:

This apple spice cake with brown sugar caramel glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The moist and tender crumb is complemented perfectly by the sweet and tangy glaze. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
