HONEY-GLAZED GERMAN APPLE CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



Honey-Glazed German Apple Cake Recipe by Tasty image

This delicious butter cake is a slightly sweeter and more festive spin on a German tea-time classic. Making this cake a day ahead of serving allows the apples to infuse the cake, and it means there's one less thing to do the day of. Pair with ice cream or fresh unsweetened whipped cream!

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Desserts

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, softened, plus more for greasing
1 ½ cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup sugar
1 ½ teaspoons lemon zest
2 large eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
2 sweet tart apples, such as honeycrips
1 tablespoon honey
1 ½ teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 335°F (170°C). Grease a 9-inch (22 cm) tart pan (with a removable base) with butter, then dust with flour, turning to coat evenly and tapping out the excess.
  • In a large bowl, cream the sugar, butter, and lemon zest together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.
  • Make a well in the center of the creamed sugar and butter. Add the eggs, vanilla, and salt to the well. Beat to combine.
  • Sift in the flour and baking powder, then beat just to incorporate. The batter will be thick and sticky.
  • Using a rubber spatula, transfer the batter to the prepared tart pan and spread in an even layer, starting at the center and working toward the outer edges.
  • Cut lobes off of the apples, then discard the cores.
  • Stick a skewer crosswise through the flat side of each apple wedge, just deep enough so the skewer is not exposed; this will prevent the knife from cutting all the way through the apple. Set the apples flat-side down and thinly slice lengthwise, stopping your knife when you hit the skewer. Remove the skewers.
  • Arrange the apples in a circle pattern over the batter and gently push in to submerge slightly.
  • Bake the cake for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost completely clean. The cake will brown around the edges before it's done.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the honey and water.
  • Brush the honey mixture over the top of the warm cake.
  • The cake can be served immediately, but it is even better the next day, as the apples will infuse the cake with their flavor when left to sit covered at room temperature overnight. Remove the tart ring, then slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     dessert

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 to 10 slices of cake

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups crisp dry white wine (such as dry Riesling or sauvignon blanc)
1 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup honey (any kind)
2 wide strips lemon zest
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped (or 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract)
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
1/4 cup honey (any kind)
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 large eggs
Confectioners' sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the apples: Combine the wine, water, granulated sugar, honey, lemon zest and vanilla bean and seeds in a wide medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a steady simmer and cook, stirring to dissolve the sugar, about 5 minutes. Add the apples, stir to combine and simmer until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully remove the apples with a slotted spoon to a large plate or small rimmed baking sheet. Continue to rapidly simmer the syrup until slightly thickened and reduced to about 1 cup, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Remove the vanilla bean. Transfer the apples and syrup to a shallow bowl and refrigerate until cold.
  • Meanwhile, make the cake: Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Brush a 9-inch round cake pan with olive oil; line the bottom with parchment paper and brush the parchment with olive oil. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Put the granulated sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until fully combined, about 1 minute. Add the olive oil and beat until combined, about 1 minute. Beat in the lemon juice, honey and vanilla extract. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture in two additions until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and tap against the counter once or twice to remove any air bubbles. Bake until the top of the cake is golden brown and the center springs back when gently pressed, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 15 minutes in the pan, then turn out the cake onto the rack, remove the parchment and let cool completely.
  • Transfer the cake to a platter and dust with confectioners' sugar. Cut into wedges and serve with the apples and syrup.

HIDDEN APPLES AND HONEY CAKE



Hidden Apples and Honey Cake image

At the Rosh Hashanah meal, apples and honey symbolize the hope for a sweet new year. While this next-level cake isn't traditional, it's a fun dessert you can serve for the holiday or really anytime you want to impress. Scented with warm spices like cinnamon, cardamom, allspice and nutmeg, it requires just two bowls and no special equipment to whip up. And that's not even the best part: When you cut into the loaf, entire slices of tart apples are revealed. At the very end, everything is drizzled with a salted honey glaze for a dessert that is sure to knock their socks off.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray
3 Granny Smith apples (about 1 pound 6 ounces), peeled and cored with an apple corer
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Kosher salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Stand each apple upright (with what would have been the stem-side up) on a cutting board. Working with 1 apple at a time, slice the apples vertically 1/4 inch thick, squeezing together the slices to keep the shape of the whole apple as intact as possible. Immediately place it into the prepared loaf pan, keeping the shape of the whole apple intact with the slices parallel to the long sides of the pan. Repeat with the remaining 2 apples.
  • Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cardamom, allspice, nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, buttermilk, vanilla and 1/2 cup honey in another medium bowl until smooth. Add the flour mixture to the honey mixture and whisk until the batter is smooth. Pour the batter over the apples in the loaf pan, scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula to make sure all the batter is used. Gently tap the pan 3 times on the counter to evenly distribute the batter throughout the apples.
  • Bake until a toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs, about 1 hour. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the cake cool completely, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Invert the cake onto a serving platter.
  • Whisk the confectioners' sugar with 1 teaspoon water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1 tablespoon honey in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cake. Serve at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
