~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1/2 to 1 teaspoon rum extract

Steps:

  • 1. Cook's Tip: I found that in my oven, it took about 50 minutes for the cake to get done. I tented it with foil to slow the browning. Check with a tooth pick in the middle and if it comes clean, it is done. Cake will pull away from the sides of the pan.
  • 2. PREPARE THE CAKE: In a large mixing bowl, place the cake mix and the ingredients according to the directions on the box, add the walnuts. Grease and flour a 10 inch bundt pan. Pour the batter in the pan. Dice the apples in the pie filling into small pieces, and spoon the filling evenly over the batter. Don't push it down.
  • 3. BAKE THE CAKE: Place the cake in the oven and bake according to the package directions. Note that it may take more time than indicated because of the addition of the pie filling. Use the toothpick test to check if it is done. Cool the cake 15 minutes, make sure it is loose, and then turn over on a foil lined tray. Cool completely before icing. Enjoy!
  • 4. RUM ICING RECIPE: Bring the following to room temperature 2 tablespoons of butter 2 ounces of cream cheese 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon of rum extract (taste at 1/2 teaspoon to make sure it isn't too strong) With an electric mixer and small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, extract, and butter until well mixed, and then add the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. If it is too thick, add a half teaspoon of water and mix well. Spoon the mixture into a small plastic ziplock bag, close it and get the air out, and then snip the corner of the bag and ice the cake.

APPLE RUM RAISIN CAKE (GLUTEN-FREE, LOW-GI)



Apple Rum Raisin Cake (Gluten-Free, Low-GI) image

I used a gugelhupf pan here, but you can just use a round 7-inch cake pan. If you'd like to lower the glycemic index, you can omit raisins and replace coconut sugar with erythritol or xylitol. This cake is pretty moist and does crumble a little when you slice it, so please don't make the batter too loose by adding too much applesauce. This cake is good with ice cream (vanilla, rum raisin, salted caramel, dulce de leche, etc.). Fore more healthy, gluten-free recipes, please visit my blog, www.innerharmonynutrition.com.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tart apples, peeled, halved, cored, and sliced about 1/8 inch thick (Granny Smith)
1/2 cup golden raisin
2 tablespoons dark rum
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum

Steps:

  • Line bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper; butter parchment paper and sides of pan.
  • Set a rack in the middle of the oven; preheat oven to 350°.
  • Combine all the filling ingredients in a bowl (glass or stainless); let stand while you prepare the batter.
  • In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; mix well and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed for 5 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition.
  • Beat in vanilla; using a rubber spatula, fold in half the flour mixture.
  • Drain the apples in a colander set over a bowl; add the milk to any rum that drains into the bowl and stir the liquids into the batter, then fold in the remaining flour mixture.
  • Spread half the cake batter evenly in the prepared pan; scatter with the sliced apple mixture.
  • Scrape remaining batter onto the filling and smooth out.
  • Slide a foil-lined cookie sheet onto the rack below the middle one to catch any drips.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes or until cake is risen, firm, and deep golden and the apples are cooked through and tender.
  • Let cake cool in pan for 15 minutes, then loosen the cake by running a sharp paring knife around the inside of the pan, scraping the knife against the pan, not the cake.
  • Remove the sides and slide the cake off the base to a rack to finish cooling.
  • When the cake has cooled completely, invert the cake onto a plate, remove the paper, and invert the cake onto the rack again so it is right side up.
  • Make the glaze: stir together the powdered sugar and rum in a small saucepan; mix well.
  • Place over medium heat until warm and fluid.
  • Drizzle half the glaze over the top of the cake in a series of parallel lines.
  • Rewarm the glaze if necessary and drizzle another series of lines on a diagonal to the first ones.
  • Wait until the glaze dries, then slide the cake onto a platter.
  • Serve with ice cream or whipped cream; this cake is best served on the day it is made.

In this article, we'll explore what apple rum cake is, what ingredients are used, and how it is made.

What is Apple Rum Cake?

Apple rum cake is a type of cake that is made with apples and rum. The cake can be made in many different ways, with various types of apples, spices, and other ingredients. However, the basic concept of apple rum cake remains the same. The cake is usually moist and has a rich, buttery flavor that is complemented by the sweetness of the apples and the warmth of the rum.

Ingredients

The ingredients for apple rum cake vary depending on the recipe, but there are some common ingredients that are used in most recipes. These include:
Apples

Rum
Rum is another key ingredient in apple rum cake. It provides a rich, warm flavor that complements the sweetness of the cake. Most recipes call for dark rum, but light rum can also be used.
Flour
Flour is used to give the cake structure and to make it fluffy. Most recipes call for all-purpose flour, but some recipes use a mixture of all-purpose flour and almond flour.
Baking Powder and Baking Soda

How to Make Apple Rum Cake

Making apple rum cake is fairly simple, but it requires some preparation and attention to detail. The basic steps for making apple rum cake are:
Step 1: Prepare the Apples
The first step in making apple rum cake is to prepare the apples. Most recipes call for peeled, cored, and chopped apples. The apples should be diced into small pieces so that they cook evenly in the cake. Some recipes also call for the apples to be sautéed in butter and sugar before they are added to the cake batter. This helps to soften the apples and to bring out their sweetness.
Step 2: Prepare the Cake Batter
Once the apples are prepared, the next step is to prepare the cake batter. This usually involves creaming the butter and sugar together until fluffy, then adding the eggs, one at a time. The dry ingredients, such as the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg, are then added to the mixture, alternating with the liquid ingredients, such as the rum and vanilla extract. Finally, the chopped apples are folded into the batter.
Step 3: Bake the Cake
The final step in making apple rum cake is to bake the cake. The cake is usually baked in a Bundt pan or a loaf pan, depending on the recipe. The cake should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Apple Rum Cake is a perfect dessert to serve your guests or enjoy with your family. It’s a moist and spicy cake that has chunks of apples and pecans, which add a delightful crunch to every bite. Although making an apple rum cake sounds like a daunting task, it’s incredibly easy if you have the right recipe and follow a few essential tips. In this article, we will talk about the important tips that you need to keep in mind when making an apple rum cake recipe.

1. Choosing the Right Apples

The type of apples you use in your apple rum cake recipe is crucial. You want to use apples that are firm and won’t turn mushy when baked. Apples such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn are perfect for making apple rum cakes. Avoid using Red Delicious apples as they tend to turn into applesauce after baking.

2. Rum Selection

The right rum can make or break your apple rum cake. So, choosing the right rum is essential. Dark rum complements the apple flavors and adds depth to the cake. However, if you want a more subtle flavor, you can use light rum. Ensure that you don’t use too much rum as it can overpower the flavors of the cake. A quarter of a cup of rum is enough that too if your recipe requires it.

3. Measuring Ingredients Accurately

Measuring the ingredients accurately is extremely important when it comes to baking an apple rum cake. Even the slightest change in the measurement can affect the texture and flavor of the cake. Hence, ensure you follow the recipe and measure each ingredient correctly. Use measuring cups and spoons to get precise measurements.

4. Creaming Butter and Sugar

Creaming butter and sugar is the first step to making a fluffy and moist apple rum cake. Ensure that the butter is at room temperature before creaming it with sugar; this will help in blending the ingredients better. Beat the butter and sugar until it becomes light and fluffy. The creamed butter and sugar act as a base for the cake and sets the course for the texture and moisture of the cake.

5. Adding Apples and Nuts

Adding apples and nuts to the cake batter is where the real magic happens. Cut the apples into small pieces and sprinkle a little flour over them before mixing them with the batter. This helps in preventing the apple pieces from sinking to the bottom of the cake. When it comes to nuts, pecans are a great option as they complement the flavors of the apple rum cake. Toast the nuts before adding them to the batter as it’ll enhance their flavors and add a little crunch to the cake.

6. Baking Time

Baking time is crucial when it comes to baking an apple rum cake. Overbaking can result in a dry cake, while less baking can make it gooey and uncooked. Generally, an apple rum cake takes around 45-50 minutes to bake in a preheated oven at 350°F. However, the baking time may vary depending upon the oven type and altitude. So, keep an eye on the cake and check it with a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, it’s ready.

7. Cooling and Serving

Once the cake is baked, it’s essential to let it cool down before serving. Let the cake cool for at least an hour before removing it from the pan. If you remove it too soon, the cake may break or stick to the pan. You can serve the cake cold or warm, drizzled with a little rum glaze. Garnish it with some fresh apples or whipped cream for an added touch.

Conclusion

Making an apple rum cake is easier than you think. By following these simple tips, you can make a delicious apple rum cake in no time. Remember to choose the right ingredients, measure them accurately, cream the butter and sugar well, add apples and nuts, bake it to perfection, let it cool, and serve it with love. We hope these tips help you create a dessert masterpiece that your guests will rave about.
