I haven't done very many food posts over here. Know why? Nearly every time I've set out to do a post on a recipe, either the dish doesn't turn out, my photos come out terrible or someone eats it before I get photos! Food blogging just hasn't been my forte, but today I did manage to capture a simple, rustic Fall dessert. Well, not the 'during' photos, but the 'afters' : )
This is so easy, and so yummy I know you'll want to whip this up soon.
Ingredients
Cake:
3 large apples, peeled and coarsely chopped {I used Gala}
2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon +
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1 cup of oil
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar +
2 T. brown sugar
1 tsp vanillaIcing:
1 8oz package of cream cheese, softened
1 stick of butter, softened
1 tsp maple extract
1-2 cups powdered sugar {adjust for your own taste}
1-2 T. cream or milk if needed
Directions
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9" cake pan or baking dish. {I used a springform pan}
Peel and chop the apple and toss with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and 1/4 tsp cinnamon and set aside.
Beat together eggs, oil, sugars and vanilla.
In a separate bowl combine the flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon.
Mix the dry ingredients into the oil and egg mixture. Add the chopped apples {batter will be thick} and pour into prepared pan.
Bake for approximately 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
For the icing, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Add the maple extract and 1 cup powdered sugar, {adding more-up to 2 cups- to taste} beating until smooth and creamy. You may add a tablespoon or two of milk or cream at this point if you'd like it a little thinner.
This rustic cake is delicious all by itself. It's dense and very moist and is yummy with coffee or an ice cold glass of milk {as my kids will attest}
But if you are in the mood for a little icing on top, this creamy, buttery, maple-y icing is to die for!
I'm so glad we are welcoming glorious October together, my friends! Thank you so much for being here!

ReplyDeleteI am in the mood for baking, but it was 91 degrees in Ventura at 7:30 p.m. It is just too hot to cook.
YUM! Jeanette, this looks so yummy and perfect for Fall. I love anything maple. It's my favorite kind of doughnut also. I will be making this. My sis just gave me a bag of apples from her tree. Thanks for sharing it with SYC.

This looks so good and there is nothing better than a dense, flavorful cake. I'm an old fashioned baker and when I see oil in a recipe I know it's going to be so moist too! Thank you for sharing. Really wish I had a piece right now!
