Time 3h25m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 to 2 1/2 cups peeled, cored and finely diced sweet apples
1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
3/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Mix together the softened butter with 2 tablespoons of the flour to make a paste. In a 10-inch Bundt pan, paint on the flour and butter paste with a pastry brush until the pan is well coated.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar, oil and eggs until smooth. Add the orange juice and vanilla extract and mix well. In another bowl, sift together the baking soda, cinnamon, salt and remaining 3 cups flour. Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and continue to beat well. Stir in the apples and walnuts.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Turn the cake out onto a cake plate.
  • For the glaze: Combine the sugar, butter, buttermilk and baking soda in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil the mixture until it thickens slightly and begins to turn a light brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Using a toothpick, punch 15 to 20 holes in the top of the cake and pour the glaze over the cake. Let the cake set and cool before serving. Store the cake in an airtight cake carrier in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

I've been making this cake for over 30 years, and always get great compliments from it. Even my sweets-hating husband likes this one. I've been making it for my mother's birthday for years...it's her favorite. It's a dense cake with great flavor, so if you're looking for a light, fluffy cake, this is not for you!

AMISH APPLE CAKE WITH HOT CARAMEL SAUCE



Amish Apple Cake With Hot Caramel Sauce image

This is one of our favorite cake recipes, originally published in Cooking from Quilt Country by Marcia Adams. I modified the caramel sauce a bit and increased the amount of the sauce since it is so wonderful! The cake keeps well and can be reheated briefly in the microwave. Extra caramel sauce is divine over ice cream!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, crisp apples. This will give your cake the best flavor and texture.
  • Peel and core your apples before slicing them. This will make them easier to slice and will help the cake bake evenly.
  • Toss the apples with a little bit of flour before adding them to the batter. This will help to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will give the flavors time to develop.

Amish Fresh Apple Cake is a classic fall dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet apples, cinnamon, and nutmeg is irresistible.
