Ingredients
Caramelized Apples:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 1/2 lbs (about 4) apples (peeled, cored, and chopped into small bite-size pieces)
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
Cake Batter:
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Whipped Cream:
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar and stir with a wooden spoon. Add chopped apples and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until apples are softened. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream together eggs, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add browned butter apple mixture. Fold in flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Spray springform pan or 9-inch cake pan with non-stick cooking spray. Pour batter into pan. Bake for 30-38 minutes or until a light golden brown color forms on the top and the cake is done in the middle. *The top can become a little brown so may want to cover with foil the last 10 minutes of baking.* Set aside to cool.
- To make whipped cream: whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and whip for 30 seconds longer.
- Remove cake from springform pan. If using a cake pan, carefully invert the cake onto a cooling rack, and gently flip the cake over and place right-side-up on a serving platter. Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into slices and serve with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
