Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt (I use Diamond kosher salt, even for baking)
¾ cup lard (preferably non-hydrogenated, unprocessed)
½ cup water
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon lemon juice
32 ounces apple dessert filling/topping
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons melted or softened butter
½ teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons whole milk (more to thin, if necessary)

Steps:

  • Sift together flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Add lard and cut in with pastry cutter or fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a measuring cup, mix water, egg yolks and lemon juice together and pour over flour mixture. Blend gently with a fork until combined; mixture will be very moist.
  • Divide dough in half. Roll or pat one half of dough directly into 9" by 13" jelly roll pan, bringing dough slightly up the edges. I patted with my hands, you could also try a mini roller. Spread apple filling evenly over the dough. Roll remaining dough to fit the top, either on a well floured pastry board or the back of a sheet pan and then carefully flip it over the top. Press or pinch the edges together, don't worry if it doesn't seal completely, as long as top is completely covering apples. Patch where necessary. Cut several slits in top dough for steam vents.
  • Bake in 400º oven for 40 minutes, until crust is nicely browned, rotating pan halfway. Remove to rack to cool.
  • Make glaze. Combine sugar, softened butter, vanilla and milk until smooth, adding more milk if necessary for consistency. Spread glaze over top of crust with an offset spatula and let glaze set and harden. Cut into 2- or 3-inch squares and enjoy!

Time 10m

Yield 9 apple donuts

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 apples
1/3 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread
1/3 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup strawberry Greek yogurt
Suggested toppings: small slices of strawberries, sprinkles, granola and chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Slice the top and bottom from each apple and discard. Slice the apples into 1/2-inch circles. Use a biscuit cutter or small melon baller to cut a hole in the center of each to make a "donut."
  • Put the chocolate-hazelnut spread and peanut butter in separate pastry bags (or put in separate ziptop bags and snip off a corner).
  • Top the apple rings with either the chocolate-hazelnut spread, peanut butter or yogurt. (Pipe the chocolate-hazelnut spread or peanut butter, then spread carefully with a knife or offset spatula; spread the yogurt with a spoon.) Garnish each with a variety of the toppings.

Tender and moist homemade apple Bundt cake smothered in a buttery brown sugar glaze. Your new favorite cake for the crisp fall weather.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Cake

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/4 cups (300ml) canola or vegetable oil
1/2 cup (120g) plain yogurt or sour cream, at room temperature
1 and 1/4 cups (250g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract (yes, 1 full Tablespoon)
3 cups (360g) peeled and chopped apples, about 2-3 large apples
1 cup (200g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/4 cup (57g) unsalted butter
1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
1/2 cup (60g) confectioners' sugar, sifted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Spray a 10-12 cup Bundt pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a large bowl until combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, yogurt, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla together until combined and creamy. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and slowly whisk until no large lumps remain. Try to avoid over-mixing. Carefully fold in the apple chunks. If you feel 3 large apples is too much, feel free to cut down to 2 apples. I like a lot of apple chunks in my cake!
  • Spoon/pour the thick batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for 55-75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean. The baking times may vary depending on your oven, if you used a 10 cup bundt pan or 12 cup, or if you used less apple chunks. Keep your eye on the cake after 55 minutes. Feel free to cover the cake loosely with aluminum foil about halfway through to prevent heavy browning on top. Allow the cake to cool in the pan set on a wire rack, then invert onto a serving plate once cooled and ready to serve.
  • As the cake cools, prepare the brown sugar glaze. Combine the butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly as the mixture comes to a simmer and then a rapid boil. Once boiling, stop stirring and allow to boil for 1 minute. Turn the heat down to low, give it a quick stir, and let simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar. Allow glaze to cool and slightly thicken for at least 10 minutes. Spoon glaze over the cake right before serving. If your glaze thickens up too much before serving the cake, warm in the microwave for 15 seconds and stir until smooth.
  • I like this cake warm, at room temperature, and even cold. Cover leftovers and store at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Flavor is outstanding on day 2!

Tips for Achieving the Perfect Glaze:

1. Use Fresh Ingredients: Ensuring that your ingredients are fresh, especially the lemon juice, will result in a glaze with a vibrant flavor. 2. Temperature Matters: For a smooth and glossy glaze, make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This allows them to blend together seamlessly. 3. Customize the Glaze: Feel free to adjust the glaze to your preference. Add more sugar for a sweeter glaze or a splash of vanilla extract for a richer flavor. 4. Glaze Consistency: The ideal consistency for a glaze is slightly thick and pourable. If it's too thick, add a little water or milk. If it's too thin, add more powdered sugar. 5. Apply Glaze Promptly: To achieve a shiny glaze, apply it to your pastries while they're still warm. This helps the glaze set quickly and prevents it from soaking in.

Conclusion:

With these recipes and tips, you have everything you need to create a variety of delectable glazes that will transform your culinary creations into mouthwatering masterpieces. Whether you prefer a classic lemon glaze, a tangy orange glaze, or a rich chocolate glaze, these recipes provide a solid foundation for your glazing adventures.
