Recipe for Apple Pie Cake. This is unbelievably good -- a family favorite -- and uses ingredients that you probably have in your kitchen right now! (assuming you have apples!)
I use a 10 x 13 casserole dish, but you can use a standard 9 x 12 cake pan as well.
6-8 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1-2 tsp lemon juice (depending on how sweet/tart the apples are)
1/2 - 1 cup of sugar
1 tsp of cinnamon (or more -- I love cinnamon)
Combine the sliced apples with the lemon juice, sugar and cinnamon and put in the bottom of the casserole dish. Should be about 1-1/2 inch to 2 inches deep.
Then make the cake batter:
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar -- cream together
4 eggs -- add
2 cups flour
2tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt -- add and mix well.
Put big blobs of batter on top of apples.
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar -- cream together
4 eggs -- add
2 cups flour
2tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt -- add and mix well.
Put big blobs of batter on top of apples.
Use a knife or wooden spoon to spread and cover the apples the best you can.
Bake at 350 for about an hour -- until the top is nicely browned and you see some bubbling around the edges.
