Рецепт Southern Fresh Apple Cake
This is a very moist and fruity cake, and typically southern (USA), studded with many sinful pleasures, i.e., apples, coconut, pecans and golden raisins, plus a rich soaking sauce to add more calories! I like to bake it in a kugelhof pan, but a bundt or plain tube pan would work fine, too. This cake would be great for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any autumn or winter day.
Ингредиенты
- Cake:
- Butter, for greasing pan
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg, optional
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups peeled and finely chopped apples
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- ¾ cup golden raisins, optional
- Sauce:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- (I add a teaspoon of vanilla)
Инструкции
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Generously grease a tube pan.
- For the cake: in a large bowl, combine the sugar, eggs, oil, orange juice, flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg (if used) and vanilla extract; and mix well. Fold apples, coconut, golden raisins (if used)and pecans into batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a tester comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Shortly before the cake is done, make the sauce: Melt the butter in a large saucepan, stir in the sugar, buttermilk, and baking soda, and bring to a good rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute. Pour the sauce over the hot cake in the pan as soon as you remove it from the oven. Let stand 1 hour to soak up sauce, then turn the cake out onto a rack to cool completely.
