2 sticks unsalted butter, well softened, divided
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
2 pounds tart apples such as Granny Smith, Northern Spy, or Greening, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cored
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups walnuts (5 ounces), coarsely chopped, toasted , and cooled completely

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon pure almond extract
3 tablespoons apple jelly

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.

  • Spread 1/2 stick butter thickly on bottom of a 12-inch heavy skillet and sprinkle 1/2 cup sugar evenly over butter. Arrange apples, cut sides down, over sugar and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook over medium heat, turning apples occasionally, until sugar is caramelized and apples are tender and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in extracts. At low speed, mix in flour mixture until just combined (batter will be thick).
  • Dollop batter over apples and spread evenly. Bake until torte just begins to pull away from side of pan and a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool torte in pan on a rack 30 minutes. Put rack over torte, then invert torte onto rack.
  • Melt apple jelly in a small heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring. Brush apples generously with jelly, then cool torte completely, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
