Apple Dapple Cake

June 2, 2009 by kim 12 Comments



I’ve been a blogging addict as of late. With this one and my other one, I have the need to update one or the other every day. When I’m not updating, I’m always thinking of what I could bake/what outfit I could put together to update. It’s terrible with finals just around the corner. Just think.. I graduate IN A WEEK! Oh my goodness.


By the way, has anyone seen the movie UP? Umm best pixar movie ever! (actually I love monsters inc and toy story a heck of a lot). But UP was amazing! I’m a sucker for old people and old people love just makes my heart melt. I was crying within the first 5 minutes of the movie. Sad, I know… but if you haven’t seen it yet, I’d highly recommend it for all ages.


Yup, I’m still on that apple kick, getting rid of all the apples in my house. When I saw this cake, I knew I had to make it because 1.) there are apples in the recipe and 2.) just look how moist it is! I actually LOVED this cake. My dad thought it was best warm, right out of the oven and I thought it was the best after it had cooled for a couple of hours. It wasn’t very sweet, even with the glaze, which makes it perfect for an afternoon/morning snack. Original recipe can be found from A Southern Grace HERE.


Cake:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup applesauce
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3 cups finely chopped apples

Glaze:
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup milk

1.) In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Make a well in the center and set aside.
2.) In a medium bowl, combine eggs, oil, applesauce, and vanilla. Add the wet mixture to dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Stir in apples.
3.) Spread the batter in a greased and floured 9 x 13-inch pan. Bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes.
4.) For the glaze, combine the brown sugar, butter, and milk in a small saucepan. Cook and stir until bubbly and all of the sugar is dissolved. Cool slightly. Drizzle warm over cake when it has cooled for 5 minutes, so it can seep into the cake and keep it moist and completely irresistible.

    Looks lovely! What kind of apples did you use and how many were needed to make 3 cups?

    so.. I have to tell you a funny story about this cake.
    I decided to make this a couple months ago and I was at my mother in law’s house. I got all the ingredients out and was sooo looking forward to making it.
    I tossed it in the oven and let it bake.. it didnt rise. so i let it bake some more. it still didnt rise… so I brought it out of the oven and it had a consistency of pudding.. or chutney.
    So I went over the ingredient list because i couldnt think what on earth I forgot and turns out I didnt forget anything. I went to the pantry and pulled out the container of flour and showed it to my mom in law. She started laughing uncontrollably and between breaths (and laughter) she told me it was coffee creamer..

    ….

    yeah.

    but it was awesome over ice cream! hehe
