10-MINUTE GINGER CAKE "BAKED" APPLES



10-Minute Ginger Cake

I love baked apples and ginger cake -- so I decided to put them together. Even better, this homey autumn dessert comes together so fast that you can make it any time you've got a craving!

Provided by Carla Hall

Categories     dessert

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 medium apples, cored with an apple corer
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon light or dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon fleur-de-sel
1 cup Apple Cider Caramel Sauce (recipe follows)
1 pint vanilla ice cream, for serving
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup apple cider
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into fourths
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Using a spoon, remove enough of the interior of each apple so that the walls are about 1/2-inch thick all around, including the bottom, and there's enough of a well for the cake batter. Place the apples in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave the apples until just warm, 20 to 40 seconds, then remove and set aside.
  • Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, baking powder, milk, vegetable oil, and maple syrup in a medium bowl until just combined. Spoon or pour the batter inside the apples, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top of each. Microwave the apples in the same microwave-safe dish until the batter rises and sets, about 2 minutes 20 seconds. Dust the top edges of the apples with a little fleur-de-sel and let cool slightly, then serve with Apple Cider Caramel Sauce and vanilla ice cream.
  • Mix the sugar and lemon juice in a deep nonstick saucepan, place over medium heat and cover. Have a pastry brush and a small bowl of water nearby to brush the sides of the pot of any granules of sugar.
  • When the sugar starts to brown, swirl the pan to ensure even browning until the sugar is amber in color, 5 to 6 minutes. Pour in the apple cider -- step back, because there will be sputtering.
  • Add the butter. Swirl the pan to melt the butter, then add the heavy cream, cinnamon and ginger. Remove from the heat. The caramel will continue to thicken off the heat. Stir before serving. Makes 1 1/2 cups. Can be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. Reheat gently on the stove top or in the microwave.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Braeburn hold their shape well during baking.
  • Peel and core the apples: This will help the apples cook evenly and prevent the skins from becoming tough. Use a melon baller or apple corer for easy removal of the core.
  • Slice the apples thinly: This will help them cook quickly and evenly. Aim for slices that are about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Toss the apples in spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are classic spices for baked apples. You can also add a pinch of salt to enhance the sweetness of the apples.
  • Use a baking dish that is just large enough to hold the apples: This will help to keep the apples from drying out. A 9x13 inch baking dish is a good size for most recipes.
  • Bake the apples until they are tender: The cooking time will vary depending on the type of apples and the thickness of the slices. Check the apples after about 30 minutes and continue baking until they are easily pierced with a fork.
  • Serve the apples warm or cold: Baked apples can be served immediately, or you can let them cool and serve them chilled. They are delicious on their own, or you can top them with whipped cream, ice cream, or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Baked apples are a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed year-round. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both comforting and elegant. Next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give baked apples a try. You won't be disappointed.
