Ingredients

10 servings

  • ¾ cup butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 4 apples, peeled and cut into ¼-inch (6.3mm) thick slices, recommended: granny smith or pink lady
  • 1 cup butter, melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9-inch (23cm) cake pan.
  • In a bowl, cream together the butter and sugar.
  • Whisk in the eggs, vanilla and milk until fully incorporated.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Whisk until combined.
  • For the sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the brown sugar. Bring to a boil and continue to stir for 30 seconds, or until vigorously bubbling.
  • Pour the sauce into the greased cake pan.
  • Arrange the apples on top of the sauce in a circular pattern. Pour cake batter on top of apples and smooth the top of the batter.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the cake is done (the top will spring back when gently poked).
  • Cool for 10-15 minutes and loosen the sides of the cake by running a butter knife around the edge.
  • Place a plate upside down on top of the pan, then invert the pan, flipping the cake onto the plate.
  • Garnish slices with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Enjoy!
