APPLE FILLED KING CAKE



Apple Filled King Cake image

Two of our favorite things about Mardi Gras are beads and King Cake. Using frozen bread dough takes the stress and time out of making homemade dough. Once baked, the bread is very soft. The warm cinnamon apple pie filling is drool-worthy. A must-make for Mardi Gras. Try some of the other combinations Donna suggests... they sound...

Categories     Sweet Breads

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 loaf frozen bread dough (or your own homemade bread dough)
1 stick butter, melted or very soft
1/2 c sugar
1/4 c cinnamon
1 can(s) apple pie filling
1 c powdered sugar
few drops milk or water
colored sugars; purple, green, yellow
plastic baby

Steps:

  • 1. Place frozen bread doughs into an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap until thawed out.
  • 2. Roll out on a floured surface into a large rectangle, at least 10 x 18 or as large as you can without tearing the dough. Gently brush with melted or very soft butter leaving a 1-inch border around edges.
  • 3. Combine cinnamon and sugar. Sprinkle evenly over dough, avoiding edges so that ends will seal.
  • 4. Spread most of the apple pie filling along the center of the dough, longways, stopping at least an inch from then ends.
  • 5. *(See Note) Take one end of the dough and fold it all the way over to the other side of the dough. Seal edges with wet fingers. Gently roll the dough from the center where the filling is, rolling towards the sealed edge, making a long tube and keeping the filling from coming out of the ends.
  • 6. Place on a parchment-lined pan, seam down with ends of roll meeting to form a circle or oval. Pinch the ends together. Use water if necessary to make the ends stick together.
  • 7. Spray the top of bread lightly with cooking spray and cover with plastic wrap for about 45 minutes or until it has doubled in size. I put a butter or Cool Whip tub to keep the hole open while it rises, otherwise, it will completely close up while it's baking. (You can skip the rising step if you're in a hurry, but the King Cake won't get as light and fluffy.)
  • 8. Bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes. Hide the baby from underneath after baking.
  • 9. Combine powdered sugar with just enough milk or water to make a thick icing that's just thin enough to spread.
  • 10. Quickly pour or spread icing over hot King Cake then sprinkle sections with purple, green, and yellow sugar before the icing dries. You can buy pre-colored decorating sugar or make your own by shaking granulated sugar with a few of drops of liquid food color in a mason jar.
  • 11. *NOTES: For unfilled King Cakes, some bakeries braid their bread dough or make two long ropes and twist the two together then form a circle or oval before baking. You can cut the bread dough into two or three long strips, then spread with cinnamon sugar before rolling, twisting, or braiding if desired.
  • 12. FILLED KING CAKES: Instead of, or in addition to, the cinnamon sugar, spread one of these fillings over the plain bread dough and roll-up. Bake as shown above. Cream Cheese Filled: 2 (8 oz) blocks cream cheese, softened 1 cup powdered sugar 2 tsp vanilla Combine with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Spread down the long edge of plain bread dough and roll-up. Bake as directed above. Decorate as directed above. Chocolate Filled: 1/2 cup vegetable shortening (Crisco) 8 oz. unsalted butter (softened) 1 cup cocoa powder 4 cups powdered sugar (sifted) 7 Tbsp heavy cream Cream all ingredients together and spread along the long edge and roll up from the filled edge. Bake as directed above. Decorate as directed above. Fruit Filled: 1 (16 oz) can of Apple, Cherry, Peach, Lemon, Strawberry, Raspberry, or Blueberry Pie Filling 1 tsp vanilla (Apple, Cherry, Peach) 1 tsp cinnamon (Apple, Cherry, Peach) 1/2 cup sugar (Cherry) 1 Tablespoons cornstarch (Cherry) Spread filling down the long edge of bread dough and roll up from fruit filling side.

Valuable Tips for Making Apple Filled Cake Recipes

Baking an apple-filled cake can be intimidating, but with a few tips and tricks, you can create a delicious and impressive dessert for your family and friends. Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind when making apple-filled cake recipes:
1. Choose the Right Apples
The key to a successful apple-filled cake recipe is choosing the right type of apples. Apples that are sweet and firm, such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith, work best in baking because they hold their shape and provide a sweet flavor. Avoid using soft or mealy apples, such as Red Delicious or McIntosh, which can break down and turn mushy when baked.
2. Prep the Apples
Before you start baking, make sure to prep the apples properly. Cut the apples into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking and distribution throughout the cake. You can also toss the apples with a bit of lemon juice to prevent browning and enhance the flavor.
3. Avoid Overmixing
When mixing the cake batter, avoid overmixing. Overmixing can cause the cake to become tough or dry. Mix the batter until it’s just combined, and then gently fold in the apples.
4. Use a Bundt Pan
For a beautiful presentation, use a Bundt pan to bake your apple-filled cake. The pan allows the cake to rise and create a lovely shape, and it’s easy to slice and serve. Make sure to grease the pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
5. Check for Doneness
To ensure your cake is fully baked, check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done. If there’s still batter on the toothpick, continue baking for a few more minutes and check again.
6. Let it Cool
After baking, let the cake cool in the pan for at least 10-15 minutes before removing it from the pan. This allows the cake to set and prevents it from breaking apart. Once the cake has cooled, you can flip it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Add Frosting or Glaze
To add some extra sweetness and flavor, consider adding frosting or glaze to your apple-filled cake. Cream cheese frosting or a simple vanilla glaze are both great options. Just make sure the cake has cooled completely before adding any frosting or glaze.
8. Serve with Ice Cream or Whipped Cream
For a decadent dessert, serve your apple-filled cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. The creamy texture pairs perfectly with the sweet and tart flavor of the apples.
9. Experiment with Spices
While cinnamon is a classic spice for apple-filled cakes, don’t be afraid to experiment with other spices, such as nutmeg or allspice. These spices can add depth and complexity to the flavor profile of your cake.
10. Store Properly
To keep your apple-filled cake fresh and moist, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. You can also freeze the cake for up to three months. Just make sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in a freezer-safe container. Armed with these tips, you’re ready to tackle making an apple-filled cake with confidence. Enjoy experimenting with different flavors and techniques to create a dessert that’s both delicious and visually appealing.
