Categories     Dessert

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tart apples, peeled, halved, cored, and sliced about 1/8 inch thick (Granny Smith)
1/2 cup golden raisin
2 tablespoons dark rum
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum

Steps:

  • Line bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper; butter parchment paper and sides of pan.
  • Set a rack in the middle of the oven; preheat oven to 350°.
  • Combine all the filling ingredients in a bowl (glass or stainless); let stand while you prepare the batter.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; mix well and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed for 5 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition.
  • Beat in vanilla; using a rubber spatula, fold in half the flour mixture.
  • Drain the apples in a colander set over a bowl; add the milk to any rum that drains into the bowl and stir the liquids into the batter, then fold in the remaining flour mixture.
  • Spread half the cake batter evenly in the prepared pan; scatter with the sliced apple mixture.
  • Scrape remaining batter onto the filling and smooth out.
  • Slide a foil-lined cookie sheet onto the rack below the middle one to catch any drips.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes or until cake is risen, firm, and deep golden and the apples are cooked through and tender.
  • Let cake cool in pan for 15 minutes, then loosen the cake by running a sharp paring knife around the inside of the pan, scraping the knife against the pan, not the cake.
  • Remove the sides and slide the cake off the base to a rack to finish cooling.
  • When the cake has cooled completely, invert the cake onto a plate, remove the paper, and invert the cake onto the rack again so it is right side up.
  • Make the glaze: stir together the powdered sugar and rum in a small saucepan; mix well.
  • Place over medium heat until warm and fluid.
  • Drizzle half the glaze over the top of the cake in a series of parallel lines.
  • Rewarm the glaze if necessary and drizzle another series of lines on a diagonal to the first ones.
  • Wait until the glaze dries, then slide the cake onto a platter.
  • Serve with ice cream or whipped cream; this cake is best served on the day it is made.

Time 1h50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup dried currant
1/4 cup rum
1/2 cup fresh white breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons melted butter
6 medium tart cooking apples (about two pounds)
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
4 egg yolks
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons finely grated lemons, rind of
2 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar
1 3/4 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter

Steps:

  • Place the currants in a small bowl and pour the rum over them.
  • Allow to soak for at least 20 minutes.
  • Peel, core and cut the apples into 1/4 inch thick slices.
  • At this point, pre-heat the oven to 350 F and start making the pastry.
  • Combine the flour and butter in a large bowl and, working quickly, use your fingertips to rub the flour and fat together until they look like flakes of coarse meal.
  • With a large spoon, beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, then beat in the sugar and lemon peel.
  • Use your fingers to pat the pastry evenly into the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform pan, 2 inches high.
  • Now fill the pastry shell.
  • Start by stirring the breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoons melted butter from the filling list of ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle the mixture over the dough in the pan and spread the apples over it.
  • Drain the currants and set the rum aside.
  • Scatter the currants over the apples.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes.
  • During this first stage of baking, beat the eggs and yolks for the custard along with the 1/3 cup sugar together until they are thick and lemon coloured.
  • Beat in the rum and cream and pour half of this evenly over the apples in the parly baked cake.
  • Bake the tart for 20 more minutes oruntil the custard is set, then pour in the rest of the custard and bake for 30 minutes longer.
  • Combine the 2 tablespoons sugar and melted butter and sprinkle over the top of the tart.
  • Bake in the top third of the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the top of the tart browns lightly.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let the tart cool completely before removing from the springform.
  • Slide onto a cake plate and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, juicy apples: Choose a variety that will hold its shape when baked, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Slice the apples thinly: This will help them to cook evenly and absorb the rum flavor.
  • Use a quality rum: A good, flavorful rum will enhance the taste of the cake. Try a dark or amber rum for a richer flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • 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 glazing: This will help the glaze to set properly.
  • Serve the cake with whipped cream or ice cream: This will add a delicious and creamy touch.
