Boiling apple cider or apple juice is poured over this cake just before baking, giving it a delicious gooey bottom. Also, this cake is made with less added fat than most conventional dessert cake.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups chopped apple
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • -
  • Optional Streusel:
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter

PREPARATION:

Butter an 8-inch square baking dish. Heat oven to 350°.

In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, 1 cup brown sugar, milk, melted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients and chopped apples until well blended. Spread in prepared baking pan.

In a small saucepan, bring apple cider, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/2 cup brown sugar to a boil. Pour slowly and carefully over the batter. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with prepared streusel (below) about 10 minutes before done.

Optional streusel: Combine 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons butter.

quick, simple comfort foodOctober 07, 2007By BonnieRich
"This was easy to make & had lots of flavor. The texture & consistency was different and very nice. I made this with Jonagold apples picked fresh from the Blue Ridge mountains. The only difficulty was the streusel topping; it didn't completely bake into the cake. It remained ""flour-ey"" on the top of the cake. The 2nd one I made I left that off and it was perfectly fine. This will definitely be made again & again!"
