Time 1h20m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup sliced apple
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 small pinch freshly grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons water
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup Greek yogurt (you could use plain yogurt as well or sour cream)
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • For filling: Make your filling by combining apples, sugar, water, cinnamon and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Cook on low heat for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring constantly until the sauce is thickend and the apples are a bit soft. Set aside to cool. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together until well combined and set aside.
  • For Cake: Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 9×13 baking dish. Set aside.
  • Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add applesauce and vanilla and mix till combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Sift the dry ingredients together. Add the dry ingredients to the batter in three parts alternating with the yogurt in two parts, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.
  • Spoon half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spoon the cooled apple mixture over the batter carefully and spread as evenly as possible. Sprinkle 2/3 of brown sugar cinnamon mixture over apples and cover with the rest of the batter. Sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar cinnamon mixture over the top.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • For Glaze: While the cake is baking, make the glaze. In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until the glaze is desired consistency. When the cake comes out of the oven, immediately but carefully pour onto hot cake. Try to pour as evenly as possible. You might have to pick up the cake and tilt it to spread the glaze evenly. I even poured some out that pooled at the corners and repoured that over the top. Let the cake sit for awhile for the glaze to set.

APPLE FRITTER CAKE RECIPE - (3.8/5)



Apple Fritter Cake Recipe - (3.8/5) image

Provided by Lsweetnell

Number Of Ingredients 19

For the batter:
3 cups of flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup of sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup butter, melted
6 small apples cored, peeled and diced
For the topping:
1 cup of butter, softened
1 cup of brown sugar
2 tbsp. flour
1 tbsp. cinnamon
For the glaze:
2 cups of powdered sugar
5 tbsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla

Steps:

  • Start by mixing all the ingredients for the batter (except the butter) together in a bowl. Once combined, carefully pour in the melted butter. If you do this part with your mixer at a high speed it will splash everywhere. So slow is best. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13 pan, any smaller and it will overflow while baking. Evenly distribute the apples over the top of the batter. In a separate bowl mix together the topping, it will be thick so do your best to drop scoops of it evenly over the apples. Then take a knife and drag it in a swirly motion all over the pan allowing the topping to make friends with the apples and batter below. Bake at 350 degrees for at least 40 minutes. Depending on how many apples you put in and how juicy they were you may need to increase your time. If the top is getting too brown you can always tent it with foil. Once baked let sit for 20 minutes and then pour the glaze all over the cake.

1/8 tsp nutmeg, fresh grated
1/8 tsp cardamom, ground

Steps:

  • 1. Filling: In a saucepan, combine apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, water, and cornstarch. Over medium heat, cook for about 5 minutes or until apples are softened and liquid thickens. Set aside.

  • 4. In a bowl, beat softened butter and sugar for about 3 minutes until fluffy. Blend in applesauce, vanilla, and egg substitute until combined.

  • 7. Spread half of the cake batter into bottom of prepared dish. Top with apple filling, spreading evenly over batter. Sprinkle half of the topping mixture over filling. Cover with remaining cake batter and then sprinkle remaining topping over that.
  • 8. Bake in preheated oven for about 35 minutes or until cake tests done.
  • 9. Glaze: In a small bowl, blend together powdered sugar, evaporated milk, vanilla, nutmeg, and cardamom. When cake is done, immediately poke a few holes and pour glaze over top of warm cake, covering completely. Allow to cool until glaze is set (about 20 minutes.)

Tips:

  • To ensure the perfect golden-brown color and crispy texture of the fritters, it's crucial to maintain the oil temperature at 350°F (175°C).
  • For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar to the fritter batter before frying.
  • For a more decadent treat, drizzle the finished fritters with a glaze made from powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Alternatively, you can dust them with powdered sugar for a classic touch.
  • To ensure a moist and tender cake, don't overmix the batter. Combine the ingredients just until they are well blended.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in a dry cake.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will prevent the frosting from melting and seeping into the cake.
  • For a stunning presentation, feel free to garnish the frosted cake with additional apple slices, chopped nuts, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.
