Yield 9 square slices

Number Of Ingredients 15

Topping
1/2 cup butter
1 cup light brown sugar
2 cups of thinly sliced apples (any baking apples will work; I used a mix of 3 kinds)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tbsn honey
Cake
Yellow cake mix
3/4 cup butter, melted
3 eggs
1 1/4 cup water
1 small applesauce cup (personal size)
1 tspn ground cinnamon
1/2 tspn ground nutmeg
1/16 cup chopped walnuts (approx)

Steps:

  • Melt 1/2 cup butter for topping. Mix with light brown sugar until creamy. Coat on bottom of 8x8 cake pan (lightly butter or spray the sides of the pan). Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped walnuts on mixture (more or less to your taste). Layer apples on top of mixture. The 2 cups of apples made two layers for me. Drizzle honey over apples. In mixing bowl, mix yellow cake mix, 3/4 cup melted butter, 3 eggs, and 1 1/4 cup water together until blended. Add in small applesauce packet. This made the cake very moist for me. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and the rest of the walnuts into the batter and mix thoroughly. I like a lightly spiced flavor, nothing to overwhelm the apples. You could easily add more spice if you would like it. Bake in 350 degree oven for 35-50 minutes, or until cake is done. Let cool. Place tray on top of cake and flip cake out of pan. Slice, and eat! This tastes great with a scoop of ice cream or cool whip. Hope you enjoy!

This cake was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more butter or oil next time.

I'm not usually a fan of upside-down cakes, but this one was really good. The caramel sauce was especially delicious.

This cake is perfect for fall. The apples and walnuts are a great seasonal combination.

I'm not a big fan of walnuts, so I substituted pecans instead. It turned out great!

I had some trouble getting the cake out of the pan in one piece, but it still tasted great.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

This cake was a hit at my last dinner party! Everyone loved the sweet and tangy apples, and the walnuts added a nice crunch. The cake itself was moist and fluffy, and the caramel sauce was the perfect finishing touch.
