APPLE BOURBON BUNDT CAKE



Apple Bourbon Bundt Cake image

One of my favorite pie alternatives is bundt cake. A hearty spice-filled bundt cake made from grated apples and toasted nuts, then soaked in whiskey syrup, defies the cliché of Thanksgiving dessert, yet keeps well within its harvest-time paradigm. Plus, a bundt cake, which is really just like an oversize muffin baked in a fancy pan, is easy to whip up. The booze bath helps keep it fresh, meaning you can bake it ahead and eat the leftovers for days.

Time 1h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 sticks unsalted butter 226 grams, at room temperature, plus more to grease pan
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 315 grams, plus more to dust the pan
3 tablespoons (30 grams) plus 1/2 cup (80 grams) bourbon or rye whiskey
1/2 cup (90 grams) candied ginger, chopped
1 3/4 cup (330 grams) light brown sugar
4 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons (8 grams) baking powder
1 teaspoon (5 grams) baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons (3 grams) ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon (5 grams) fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 cup (227 grams) sour cream
1 tablespoon (15 grams) vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoon (5 grams) finely grated lemon zest
2 medium Granny Smith apples about a pound, 454 grams, peeled, cored, and coarsely grated
1 cup (120 grams) finely chopped, toasted pecans
1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon (20 grams)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan. In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons bourbon and the candied ginger. Let stand 10 minutes.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the brown sugar and remaining butter on medium-high speed, until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time, until incorporated.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining flour with the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream and vanilla. Pour in the bourbon from the ginger mixture (reserve ginger) and whisk until smooth. Stir in zest.
  • With the mixer on medium speed, add the dry mixture and sour cream mixture to the wet mixture in three additions, alternating between the two. Fold in the ginger, apples and pecans. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until the cake is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the cake comes out dry, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Cool in the pan 20 minutes, then run a paring knife around the sides of the pan to release the cake; cool, flat side down, on a wire rack.
  • While the cake cools, combine the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup whiskey in a small saucepan. Over low heat, gently stir until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the lemon juice and take off the heat.
  • While the cake cools, make 10 slits on top with a paring knife and pour half the bourbon-sugar mixture on the still-warm cake. When the cake is fully cool, flip it and pour the rest of the glaze on the other side, then flip again to serve.

Apple walnut cake with cider sauce is a classic dessert recipe popular all over the world. The combination of soft, fluffy cake and crunchy, nutty walnuts with a sweet and tangy cider sauce makes it an irresistible treat. Making the perfect apple walnut cake with cider sauce can be a daunting task, especially if you are a beginner. However, with the right ingredients, techniques and tips, you can nail this recipe and impress your family and friends. In this article, we have compiled some valuable tips that will help you create the perfect apple walnut cake with cider sauce recipe.

Tip 1: Choose the right apples

One of the most important aspects of an apple walnut cake is selecting the right kind of apples. For this recipe, it's best to choose apples that are crisp with a sweet and tart flavor, such as Honeycrisp and Granny Smith. These apples pair well with the walnuts and add the ideal texture and flavor to the cake. Avoid using sweet apples like Red Delicious, as they tend to turn mushy after baking.

Tip 2: Use high-quality walnuts

Walnuts are an essential ingredient that adds crunch and depth to the apple walnut cake. It's important to use high-quality nuts that are fresh and have a natural sweetness. Purchase walnuts that are stored in airtight containers to ensure they are fresh and not rancid. You can also toast the nuts to enhance their flavor and aroma before adding them to the cake.

Tip 3: Measure the ingredients correctly

Measuring ingredients accurately is crucial when baking an apple walnut cake. Ingredients like flour, sugar, and baking powder must be measured precisely to get the right consistency and texture. Too much or too little of any ingredient can affect the outcome of the cake. Therefore, it's best to use measuring cups and spoons for precise measurements.

Tip 4: Mix the batter correctly

The key to making the perfect apple walnut cake lies in mixing the batter correctly. The batter should be mixed till the ingredients are well-combined and smooth. However, over-mixing the batter can cause it to become dense and tough. To avoid this, mix the batter using a gentle hand till it's just combined.

Tip 5: Bake at the right temperature and time

Baking an apple walnut cake at the right temperature and for the appropriate time is crucial. If you bake the cake at a lower temperature for too long, it can result in a dry and flat cake. On the other hand, if you bake the cake at high heat, it can cause it to burn and turn out unappetizing. Therefore, it's best to follow the instructions given in the recipe for the ideal temperature and baking time.

Tip 6: Make the cider sauce using quality cider

The sweet and tangy cider sauce is the perfect accompaniment to an apple walnut cake. To make the best cider sauce, use high-quality apple cider that has a naturally sweet flavor. Avoid using artificial flavors or concentrates, as they may not add the same flavor as natural cider. You can also add cinnamon or nutmeg to the cider sauce for additional flavor.

Tip 7: Allow the cake to cool completely before serving

After baking the apple walnut cake, allow it to cool completely before serving. This step is essential to let the flavors of the cake fully develop and to avoid the cake from crumbling or falling apart. Once the cake has cooled, you can drizzle the cider sauce over it before serving.

Conclusion

Creating a delicious apple walnut cake with cider sauce is easy if you follow the above tips. Selecting the right apples, using high-quality walnuts, measuring the ingredients accurately, mixing the batter correctly, baking at the right temperature and time, making the cider sauce using quality cider, and allowing the cake to cool completely before serving are some of the essential tips that will help you create the perfect apple walnut cake with cider sauce. With these tips, you can impress your family and friends with your delicious dessert recipe.
