The markets are full of apples, and with the sun hiding for the weekend, its the perfect time to do some baking. Not to mention this recipe just screams Fall!
Apple Cake with Warm Honey Sauce
This fall cake will warm you up, from the inside out!
Ingredients:
4 apples, peeled and sliced
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans)
Honey Sauce
1 cup honey
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup whipping cream
pinch of salt
Instructions:
Pre-heat oven to 350F. Grease and flour a 9 x 13 baking dish.
In a large bowl mix apples and sugar. Add eggs, oil and vanilla to apple mixture and blend well. Add remaining ingredients and beat together or mix in your stand mixer for 4 minutes.
Pour into the pan and bake for 50-60 minutes (until a toothpick comes out clean). Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least at hour. Remove from the pan and put on to a serving platter.
For the honey sauce, combine honey, butter, salt and cream in a saucepan. Bring to a boil for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. We recommend making the honey sauce just before you are planning to serve. It's best warm!
