NUTTY APPLE BUTTER

Being a New England native, I love apple-picking season. Grab some apples and peanut butter to make your own creamy riff on a PB&J. Of course it's great on a sandwich, but you can dunk sliced fruit or graham crackers in it, too. -Brandie Cranshaw, Rapid City, South Dakota

APPLE SNACK CAKE



Apple Snack Cake image

This is a simple yet delicious apple cake. A short list of ingredients make it a snap to put together. Don't let the small amount of batter scare you, it does rise up and fill the pan nicely. I think it would be great with cool whip or ice cream and served warm. Enjoy!

Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Yield 1 cake, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups apples, chopped (about 1 1/2 apples)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray a 8" round baking pan with cooking spray.
  • Chop up your apples.
  • Beat the eggs in a small bowl until fluffy.
  • Combine sugar, flour, baking powder and cinnamon in a bowl. Whisk together.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients together.
  • Sprinkle 1/2 apples in bottom of pan.
  • Pour over batter. It will be thick and you'll have to work it around the pan with a spatula.
  • Sprinkle remaining apples on top and sort of press them down into batter.
  • Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until golden.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that hold their shape well when cooked. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
  • Slice the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to get thin, even slices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the apples, make sure they are in a single layer in the pan. Otherwise, they will steam instead of sautéing.
  • Cook the apples until they are tender: But not mushy. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the nuts and spices: Once the apples are tender, add the nuts and spices. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the nuts are toasted and the spices are fragrant.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served warm. It can be enjoyed on its own or as a topping for yogurt, oatmeal, or pancakes.

Conclusion:

This nutty apple snack is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy apples. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The apples are sautéed in butter until they are tender and then tossed with nuts and spices. This dish is a great source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It's also a good source of antioxidants, which can help protect the body from disease.
