Got this recipe out of a magazine, delicious and not too hard to make. I used a cast iron skillet (oven proof is necessary).
Caramelized Apple Cake
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) plus 5 tbs Butter, softened
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 large granny smith apples – peeled, cored, sliced 1/4 inch thick
Heat oven to 375.
Mix flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl, set aside. Use electric mixer high speed to beat 1/2 cup of butter in large bowl until creamy (1 minute). Add granulated sugar and beat until light and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla, beat until blended. On low speed blend in flour mixture and then sour cream.
Melt remaining 5 tbs butter in ovenproof 10 inch skillet. Add brown sugar , stir 2 minutes.
Add apple slices to the pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for about 10 minutes or until tender. Let cool 5 minutes.
Spoon batter over apples and spread to edge of pan. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on rack for 20 minutes, run knife around edge and carefully invert onto plate.
Neatly! Organized! and with enthusiasm!!!
Don't question it… just run with it!!! There is also Downy wrinkle release if you are in a pinch!
You had me at caramelized…
I despise ironing, but do. That apple cake looks so good, but not good for my new diet.
A lefty! I love finding my peeps!

The cake sounds wonderful; almost as good as peach cobbler. 🙂
Good for your son, I bet he keeps this up all year!!
Wow! That looks really good!!! Glad to hear that your son is doing well!!
This is exciting news. Don't blame you for being over the moon.
I love to find recipes that use my cast iron skillet…this cake looks deliscious!
The cake does look scrumptious! I was lucky. My girls would wake me up to take them to school once it was time.
