Monday nights are now "comfort food family dinner" night for our family. Last week we had turkey chili for dinner, and crock pot apples for dessert! Tonight for dinner, we are having Chicken Broccoli Bake (I will post tomorrow) and Apple Buttermilk Cake w/Ice Cream. I love eating yummy meals as a family, taking a stroll outside in the beautiful fall weather, then coming home to enjoy dessert.
Apple Buttermilk Cake
Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of nutmeg
1/2 stick unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup plus 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/2 cup shaken buttermilk
1 large Granny Smith apple, peeled, and sliced
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
A little bit of extra cinnamon
Turbinado sugar (to sprinkle on top of cake)
Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle. Butter and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Beat butter and 2/3 cup sugar with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Add egg and beat until combined. At low speed, mix in flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour, and mixing until just combined.
In a small bowl combine the apple slices with the brown sugar and extra cinnamon. Stir until apples are coated.
Spoon batter into cake pan, smoothing top. Place sliced apples evenly over top and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
Bake until cake is golden and a wooden pick inserted into center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack and cool to warm, 10 to 15 minutes more. Invert onto a plate, and serve!
