Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups flour
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 pound (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces
5 pounds (about 12) tart apples, such as Granny Smith
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Using an electric mixer or a pastry cutter, cut in butter until the mixture forms pea-size pieces. Press 2/3 of the mixture onto bottom and 1 inch up the side of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel apples, cut into thin slices, and place in a bowl. Pour off any accumulated liquid. Toss apple slices with remaining teaspoon cinnamon and lemon juice, and put them in the prepared pan, pressing down gently as you pack them in (they will mound above the edge of the pan). Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture on top.
  • Put the pan on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet, and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Run a knife around the edge of the pan, and let the cake cool in the pan to set. Serve at room temperature.

EASY-AS-PIE APPLE CAKE



Easy-as-Pie Apple Cake image

The name of this cake is somewhat deceiving, since most apple cakes are easier than pie (which is actually never that easy if you're making it from scratch). In any case, it's a simple, excellent cake with a tender crumb, subtle spicing and soft pockets of fruit. Serve it plain, or with a dollop of ice cream, whipped cream or crème fraîche.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup/125 grams unbleached all-purpose flour, more as needed
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ounces/57 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick), softened
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 large egg
2 cups diced apples (from about 2 apples)
1/2 cup/57 grams toasted pecans, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
  • In a mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the egg and mix until smooth.
  • With the mixer on low, beat in dry ingredients until smooth (at this point the batter will be quite thick). Fold in the apples and nuts by hand.
  • Spread batter evenly into a greased and floured 9-inch fluted tart or quiche pan with 1-inch sides. (Alternatively you can use a 9-inch cake pan with 1-inch sides.) Bake until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

1 egg, slightly beaten
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon vanilla

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples with different textures and flavors, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn. This will give your cake a more complex and interesting flavor.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients: You want to make sure you have enough room to stir everything together without making a mess.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the middle.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will help the cake set and make it easier to slice.
