Ingredients

Servings

Upside Down Apple Cinnamon Topping

  • 1/2 cup butter melted, salted
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice
  • 4 cups apple peel and core them first, thinly sliced

Apple Cake Batter

  • 1 cup butter soft & at room temp
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup apple peel and core them first, measure the grated apple packed into the measuring cup, grated

Instructions

Topping (goes in the bottom of the pan)

  1. Prepare a 13 inch x 9 inch pan by greasing the sides then pouring the melted butter into the bottom.
  2. Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon and allspice.
  3. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over the melted butter.
  4. Arrange the apple slices in an even layer on top of the sugar/butter mixture.

Apple Cake Batter

  1. Cream your butter and sugars together, then beat in the eggs, one at a time, until thoroughly incorporated and the mixture is light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla.
  2. Whisk together your dry ingredients. Beat into the wet ingredients until combined. Mix in the shredded apples until spread throughout the batter.
  3. Gently spread the batter over top of the apple mixture.
  4. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40-50 minutes, until it's golden brown and a knife inserted comes out clean. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes,
  5. One you can touch the pan safely, run a knife along the edges of the pan to loosen the edges, then flip onto a large platter or sheet pan.

Notes

  • The "topping" part starts out by going into the bottom of the pan, so that when you flip it, it's the actual topping that drizzles down over top of the cake.

  • Do NOT blot the shredded apples, you need all of the moisture for the cake batter!!
