The other day when I went to "Sprouts" super market they had the tiny apples...perfect for lunch boxes in a bag. They look good and yummy and I got a bag. Ofcourse as it always happens when you have too much of something at home no one touches it. So I have this bag of apples sitting on my counter for about 2 weeks now and today I made this yummy apple coffee cake to use up some apples.
I couldn't use up as many apples as I would have liked but the cake turned out super delicious and my little Sou chef was helped me quite a bit.
The recipe I followed is by Emeril Lagasse
The recipe seems to have a lot of super in it but it wasn't sweet at all. I skipped the glaze part. But after eating a couple of pieces I think I will add the glaze.
Apple Coffee Cake
Ingredients:
Cake:
In a large bowl, cream together the remaining stick of butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating after the addition of each. In a separate bowl or on a piece of parchment, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Add to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream and vanilla. Fold in the apples. Pour into the prepared baking dish, spreading out to the edges.
To make the topping, in a bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter, and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the topping over the cake and bake until golden brown and set, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes.
To make the glaze, in a bowl, combine the sugar, vanilla, and water and mix until smooth. Drizzle the cake with the glaze and let harden slightly. Serve warm.
