Description

Directions

• Melt the 1/3 cup butter in a large non-stick sauté pan.
• Add the sugar, water and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat until the mixture gets foamy, then add the apples.
• Cook the apples in the cinnamon and sugar syrup just until they begin to soften.
• Transfer the apple slices to the prepared pan and pour the syrup from the pan over them.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan or a 10 inch round cake pan well.
• Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Beat in the vanilla extract.
• Sift together the flour and baking powder.
• Add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. In general, I add the dry ingredients in 3 portions and the milk in 2 additions.
• Dollop the batter by heaping tablespoonfuls all over the surface of the apple layer and then spread out evenly to the edges of the pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees F for about 40 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• The toothpick test is the best way to ensure that this cake is fully baked.
