Easy Cinnamon Sugar Apple Cake – a soft cake filled with juicy apples, topped with cinnamon and sugar. This is a real fall treat. I find fall truly inspiring, something like a break between summer and winter and the upcoming holidays.
4cupsapples peeled and chopped into cubesI used Gala
3large eggs
1 ½teaspoonvanilla extract
¾cupunsalted buttermelted and cooled to room temperature
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 inch baking pan with wax paper.
In a small dish combine 1 teaspoon cinnamon and ⅓ cup sugar. Set aside.
Combine apples, ½ teaspoon cinnamon and cornstarch in a medium dish. Set aside.
Combine cake flour, baking powder and salt in a medium dish. Set aside.
In a large dish, beat eggs, the rest of sugar (1 cup) and vanilla extract, at high speed, until light and fluffy. Change the speed to Low. Add a ½ flour mixture. Beat until well combined.
Add ½ melted butter, then the rest of cake flour mixture and finally the other half of the melted butter. Fold in the apples. Spread evenly into the baking pan.
Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon mixture. Bake for 50-55 min or until a toothpick placed in the center comes out clean or with a few crumbs on it.
Take out of the oven and leave in the baking pan for a few minutes to cool. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Keep at a room temperature, covered with plastic foliage.You can use parchment instead of wax paper. Instead of cake flour you can use all purpose flour.
