Apple Cranberry Coffee Cake with Bourbon Sauce image

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 cups unpeeled chopped apples
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 rib allspice
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup raisins
3/4 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup broken nuts
1 cup chopped fresh cranberries
BOURBON SAUCE
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 teaspoons butter
1/4 cup bourbon whiskey

Steps:

  • Instructions:Preheat over to 325. Prepare pans. Sometimes I make this in loaf pans, sometimes as muffins, sometimes in ramekins. It's up to you.Mix apples and sugar in a large bowl and set aside. Mix eggs, oil and vanilla in a separate bowl. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice and salt with a fork in yet another bowl. Next, combine egg mixture with apples and sugar. Combine flour mixture with apple mixture. Mix thoroughly it's very chunky. Then add raisins, cranberries, nuts and butterscotch bits into mixture until evenly distributed. Bake for 25-30 minutes. You may need to bake a little longer for loaf or bundt pans. Check with toothpick. Serve warm or at room temp. For added moisture, drizzle with Bourbon Sauce. (see below.)Melt butter over medium heat. Add brown sugar and Bourbon. Simmer on low heat, stirring often to cook off some of the alcohol, about 5 minutes. Poke holes in surface of warm cake with wooden skewer and drizzle with sauce. Cover and let stand for a least an hour before serving. Freezes well.Comments:First Place Taste Award, Haywood County Harvest Festival Apple Dessert Competition

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my coffee cake didn't turn out as fluffy as I expected. It was still tasty, though.

This coffee cake was a hit at our holiday brunch! The flavors of apple, cranberry, and bourbon were perfectly balanced, and the cake was moist and fluffy. I will definitely be making this again.
