Ingredients
For the cake:
- ½ cup butter softened, unsalted
- 1 ½ cup granulated sugar divided
- 2 egg large
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- 1 package apple about 3 1/2 cups, Crunch Pak, peeled and diced slices
- ½ cup pecans chopped
For the caramel sauce:
- ¼ cup butter unsalted
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 3 Tablespoon heavy whipping cream
- 2 Tablespoon bourbon
- pinch salt
- butter pecan ice cream for serving, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Grease a 9 or 12 inch cast iron skillet with shortening (unless your skillet is well seasoned already). Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and 1 1/4 cup of granulated sugar (saving the remaining 1/4 cup for later). Beat together until pale and fluffy, about 3 -4 minutes.
- Add in eggs and vanilla, beat until well combined.
- Slowly add in flour, baking powder and salt. Mix until just combined. Beat in sour cream. Fold in apples and pecans.
- Pour batter into prepared skillet. Sprinkle with remaining sugar.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes. Allow cake to cool slightly in pan while making the caramel sauce. (or you can make caramel sauce while cake is cooking)
- For the caramel, in a saucepan, add butter and heat over medium heat until melted. Whisk in the brown sugar, heavy cream, salt, and bourbon. Heat over medium high heat until boiling.
- Boil for one full minutes and serve over warm cake with butter pecan ice cream. ENJOY.

Notes
- If you’re looking for a few shortcuts, skip the bourbon caramel sauce (I know, I can’t believe I said that), and use a good quality caramel sauce instead (you can find them in the grocery store with the other ice cream toppings).
- When choosing apples, I like granny smith best. However, any apple works great, and there’s no need to peel (unless you like the extra work!
