AUNTIE'S APPLE CAKE



Auntie's Apple Cake image

Come autumn, Southerners love an apple dessert, no matter which form it takes. You'll see farmers' market apples filling everything from warm and gooey apple cobbler with a scoop of ice cream on top to a towering apple stack cake with sweet, sticky filling. But you really can't beat a classic apple cake-and Auntie's Apple Cake is certainly one for the recipe box. This traditional recipe for easy apple cake has everything you need: fresh apples, a pecan-studded spiced batter, and a heavenly praline-like frosting. Everyone will swoon when served a slice for dessert, but this cake works just as well as a brunch treat (paired with a cup of coffee!) or as a sweet snack with afternoon tea. Like most fresh apple cakes, it actually tastes better after a day or two. For this recipe, any baking apple will do; but we suggest using pink lady, granny smith, or honeycrisp apples. Get a taste of a Southern fall-favorite dessert when serving up Auntie's Apple Cake this season. Ice cream optional!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your cake a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.

  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 60-70 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
