Swedish Apple Cake - Appelkaka image

Posted for ZWT6 Scandinavian Region - Sweden. Oh boy does this sound heavenly. I can't wait to try it out. If you do not have biscotti you can process into crumbs they state you can use almond rusk crumbs, zwieback crumbs, or fine dry bread crumbs (even though I don't think I'd like the idea of bread crumbs - just my opinion).

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 cake, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons biscotti, crumbs
1 cup butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons sugar
4 eggs
1 1/4 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 apples, pared
4 apples, sliced into 8 wedges
1/3 cup almonds, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350º. Butter the bottom and sides of a 10-inch spring-form pan or cake pan. Sprinkle the crumbs in the pan, being sure to coat the bottom and sides as evenly as possible.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup sugar with butter. Add one egg at a time until all are incorporated.
  • Sift together the flour and baking powder. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the bowl until a smooth batter is formed. Pour batter into pan.
  • Toss the apple slices in the cinnamon and 3 tablespoons remaining sugar, then press each one lightly into the batter to form a decorative pattern (pinwheel pattern is the prettiest). Scatter chopped almonds across the top.
  • Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

I've tried many apple cake recipes, but this one is by far the best. It's so moist and flavorful, and the apples are perfectly tender.

This cake was just okay. I found it to be a little dry and dense.

This cake was a little bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

This was the easiest apple cake recipe I've ever followed. I had all of the ingredients on hand, and it was a great way to use up some extra apples.
