Categories     dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup chopped dates or whole raisins (dark or golden)
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1 cup chopped walnuts
Glaze, recipe follows
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Place the dates in a bowl and toss them with 2 tablespoons of the flour until lightly coated (this will prevent them from sinking in the cake batter during baking). Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Beat the eggs and sugar in a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer) until fluffy. With the mixer running, slowly pour in the oil. One by one, mixing well after each addition, add the remaining flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and vanilla. Mix in the apples and nuts, then stir in the dates by hand, distributing them evenly in the batter. Pour into the prepared pans and bake about 35 minutes, until springy and dry in the center. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack, then turn out. To make the glaze, stir the maple syrup and sugar together in a bowl. Glaze the cooled cakes by spooning it around the tops of the cakes and letting it drip down the sides.

Tips:

1. Use a quality baking apple: Look for firm, tart apples, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. These will hold their shape and provide a nice contrast to the sweet filling. 2. Don't overmix the batter: Stir just until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing will result in a tough cake. 3. Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 1 hour. If you insert the toothpick too early, it may come out wet even if the cake is not done. 4. Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will help the flavors to develop and the cake to set.

Conclusion:

This easy stir-and-bake apple cake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's simple to make, uses pantry staples, and is always a crowd-pleaser. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a truly indulgent treat.
