APPLE CAKE



Apple Cake image

This easy apple cake recipe is the perfect fall treat! It's moist, lightly spiced, and jam-packed with tender apples. If you don't have an 9-inch round baking pan, you can bake this cake in an 8-inch square pan or a 9x5-inch loaf pan. See the post above for baking times.

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/3 cup neutral oil (like canola or grapeseed)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 small apples (peeled, cored, and chopped into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 cups))
1/2 cup toasted walnuts (chopped)
1 tablespoon whiskey (optional)
1/2 teaspoon instant espresso powder (optional)

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter or coat a 9-inch round baking pan with nonstick spray. Line the bottom of the pan with a round of parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the brown sugar and eggs until pale and foamy, about 1 minute. Add the oil, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and whiskey and espresso powder, if using. Whisk until smooth and emulsified.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda and whisk until well-combined and smooth.
  • Use a rubber spatula to fold in the apples and ¼ cup of the nuts.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and use an offset spatula to gently smooth the top, making sure the apples are well dispersed and go all the way to the edges of the pan. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup nuts over the cake.
  • Bake until puffed and golden, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. There may be a bit of moisture on the tester from the apples. Set the pan on a rack to cool for about 15 minutes. Run a thin knife around the edge and carefully turn the cake out onto a cooling rack. Then invert it again so that it's puffy side up, if desired.
  • Store the cake, wrapped tightly, at room temperature or in the fridge for up to two days.

EASIEST EVER MOIST APPLE CAKE



Easiest Ever MOIST Apple Cake image

A very moist, perfectly spiced Apple Cake! This is incredibly easy to make - no mixer required. This must be made with fresh apples, not canned. See note 5 for information about different measures in different countries & different oven types. Also, I do not recommend substituting butter for all or part of the oil - it does not come out as moist and you can't taste buttery flavour anyway because of the spice flavourings! FREEZES great!
