The Ultimate Apple Spice Cake





ingredients

1 stick (4 ounces; 8 tablespoons) unsalted butter + extra for greasing pan
4 large apples (any kind you like, mix and match) (I used 4 Fuji apples)
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar (I used Vanilla Sugar)
3 tablespoons apple schnapps, or Calvados (I used 1 tablespoon EACH brandy, boiled apple cider and water)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon cinnamon (my addition)
¼ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg (my addition)
¼ teaspoon ground allspice (my addition)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder






Directions:

Put butter in a microwave-safe measuring cup and heat for about 30 seconds, until melted. Set aside to cool.
Heat the oven to 350F. Grease an 8-inch springform-type pan with butter and set aside.
Core and peel the apples; cut them roughly in 1-inch chunks. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl (I did this in an electric stand mixer, but you could do it by hand), beat the eggs until frothy; add the sugar and whisk until smooth. Add the apple schnapps, vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice and mix well.
Mix in the baking powder. Add half of the flour, mix until fully incorporated, add half of the butter and whisk to combine. Add the rest of the flour, then the rest of the butter and mix until combined.
Add the cut apples into the thick batter and use a silicone or plastic spatula-spoon to mix them gently, so each piece of apple is covered in batter. The mixture will seem too thick, and you will be tempted to use fewer apples. Do not second guess this; use all apples!The Ultimate Apple Spice Cake | www.ShockinglyDelicious.com
Pour the mixture in the prepared pan, tamp any rogue apples down a bit, but don’t fuss with overly leveling it.
Bake for 55-60 minutes, until golden and a cake tester comes out clean when inserted at the center of the cake. Remove the pan to a rack and let it cool for 20 minutes before running a thin knife around the inside edge and then opening the ring. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Serves 6.
