APPLE SHEET CAKE WITH CINNAMON CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This lightly spiced apple cake comes together in no time at all, and a few swoops of fluffy cinnamon cream cheese frosting dress it up for dessert. As written, this recipe yields a modest amount of frosting, so frosting lovers may want to double the recipe. Make sure to use fresh cinnamon for this recipe (and all of your fall baking) to get the best results.

Steps:
- Prepare the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the center. Butter and flour a 9-by-13-inch glass or light colored metal baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the light brown sugar and eggs until pale and foamy. Add the applesauce, oil, spices and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Add the 2 cups flour, baking powder and baking soda, and whisk until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and firmly tap the pan on a countertop a few times to release air bubbles. Bake the cake until golden and puffed, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack.
- When the cake is cool, make the frosting: Add the cream cheese, butter and cinnamon to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high until smooth, stopping the mixer occasionally to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl. Turn the speed to low, and slowly add the confectioners' sugar. Mix until the sugar is moistened, then turn the speed up to medium-high and whip until smooth and fluffy.
- Spread the frosting over the cooled cake and serve. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.
HARVEST CAKE WITH CIDER-CINNAMON CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
This is an almost healthy cake that has loads of veggies (carrots, parsnip, zucchini), some whole wheat flour, no oil, and is still deliciously moist and sweet. Kids will eat this without complaint! You can also make little cupcakes with these. (If you want to make the original version, replace the applesauce and buttermilk with 1/2 cup oil and cook a little longer.) The original recipe is from the "Edible Seattle" magazine (Oct. 2008).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray or butter a 9" x 9" square pan, line with wax paper, and spray or butter the paper. Set aside.
- Whisk the flours, soda, salt, and spices together in a medium-sized bowl. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugars until very well blended. Add the vanilla, buttermilk, and applesauce and whisk until completely combined. Using a spoon, stir in the flour mixture, then fold in the grated vegetables and fruit, stirring until completely coated with batter.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake on the middle rack for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the cake tests clean with a wooden toothpick. Let cool for 15 minutes, then invert the cake onto a cooling rack. Remove paper, and invert again onto a serving plate. Cool at least 1 hour more.
- Meanwhile, make the frosting: In the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the paddle attachment, whip the butter and cream cheese together on medium speed until light and smooth, about 3 minutes. With the machine on low, add the sugar, a little at a time, then the cider and cinnamon. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, increase speed to high, and whip for 2 minutes.
- Spread half the frosting on the cake and reserve the other half for another use, or split the cake in half horizontally, fill the center with a thin layer of frosting, then frost the tops and sides of the cake.

CINNAMON APPLE QUICK BREAD WITH APPLE CIDER GLAZE
Warm spices, applesauce and a shredded tart apple make this homespun loaf comforting, but the gooey apple-cider glaze makes it stand out. You might want to double the amount of glaze, and drizzle it over ice cream, pancakes or maybe even your morning oatmeal.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour an 8 1/2-inch-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and cloves. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, applesauce, sugars, eggs and apple.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Transfer to the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh apples: Fresh apples provide the best flavor and texture for apple cider cake. Choose firm, crisp apples that are in season.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Use a cream cheese frosting that is not too sweet: A sweet frosting can overpower the flavor of the apple cider cake.
- Serve the cake with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream: This will add an extra touch of sweetness and richness to the cake.
Conclusion:
Apple cider cake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting is a delicious and versatile cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet and tangy frosting. It can be served as a snack, dessert, or even breakfast. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
