Instructions

To Make the Apple Topping:

  1. To a medium bowl, add the sliced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon and pinch of salt. Toss it together and set it aside.

To Make the Cake:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch cast iron skillet and set aside.
  2. To a large bowl, add the flour, white sugar, baking powder, spices (nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, cardamom) and salt.
  3. In a 4-cup measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla extract.
  4. Add the liquid into the dry mixture and mix just until combined; a few lumps in the batter is totally fine. Pour the batter into the prepared skillet and add the apples on top, pushing some of the apples into the batter a bit. If your apples have created any juices, pour those on top.
  5. Transfer to the oven to bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a skewer comes out mostly clean (a little crumbs are ok!). Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes before slicing it up. Serve with ice cream.

Notes

  • Tips and Tricks
  • Apples: Cut your apples evenly to ensure they cook uniformly within the cake.
  • Skillet Care: If using a cast iron skillet, ensure it’s well-seasoned to prevent sticking.
  • Serve Warm: Enjoy this cake warm for the best experience, perhaps with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.
