The Best Apple Cake Recipe

Posted By Samia

I found this recipe a couple of weeks ago from my favorite recipe website www.food.com We were at my Aunts house and because I'm like, the "baker" of the family they asked me to bake them somethin' good. My aunt wanted something that she could eat with ice-cream and also something that didn't recall much butter. So I went recipe hunting and I came across this amazing apple cake. After tweaking it a little it came out per-fect! I tried a lot of different apple cakes and this one is definitely the best one yet! And the caramel topping just makes it so much better. So, let's get to bakin' this cake shall we??

Ingredients:

3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, beaten
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups finely chopped apples
1/2 cup apple juice
1 cup chopped walnuts

Glaze topping for cake
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup whipping cream

Directions:

1. In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, soda and salt. Make a well in the center and set aside.

2. In a medium bowl combine eggs, oil, apple juice and vanilla. Stir in apples and nuts. Add the egg mixture to dry ingredients, just until moistened.

3. Spread batter in a greased and floured 9 x 13-inch pan. Bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes.

4. In a small saucepan combine the brown sugar, butter and cream.

5. Cook and stir till bubbly and all of the sugar is dissolved. Cool slightly. Drizzle warm sauce over cake, when it has cooled for 5 minutes, so it can seep into the cake, keeping it moist.

6. Enjoy your cake!!
