FRESH APPLE & BLACK WALNUT CAKE WITH CARAMEL GLAZE
This is definitely NOT the run-of-the-mill apple nut bundt cake. I came up with this recipe when I was once making a Fresh Apple Nut Cake and I didn't have any pecans, but I did have some black walnuts, so I used them instead. I also added a splash of black walnut flavoring along with the vanilla and the results were phenomenal! ...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 9" bundt pan and set aside.
- 2. In a large bowl, beat sugar, oil, eggs and flavorings until light and fluffy. Mix flour, soda, salt, and cinnamon together and add to creamed mixture. Mix only until blended (I use my spatula and not my electric mixer so as not to overbeat). Fold in apples and nuts.
- 3. Spread batter into prepared bundt pan and bake about one hour and 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and transfer onto serving plate. Top with caramel glaze (directions to follow) and serve.
- 4. CARAMEL GLAZE: Place all ingredients into a heavy saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, scraping the sides of the pot in order to remove any sugar crystals until mixture comes to a boil and begins to thicken. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Drizzle over slightly warm cake.
- 5. TIP: Sometimes black walnuts can be difficult to find. If you don't have black walnuts, you may use pecans or english walnuts but just follow this step: Place nuts in a bowl and add about 1 teaspoon of black walnut flavoring. Stir to coat and let stand for about 30 minutes. Use in recipe as usual.

APPLE WALNUT UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE WITH CALVADOS CARAMEL SAUCE
Steps:
- Make topping:
- Peel, core, and quarter apples.
- In a well-seasoned 10 1/4 by 2-inch cast-iron skillet or a 10- by 2-inch non-stick skillet melt butter over moderately low heat just until melted (butter should not separate). Stir in sugar until combined well. Arrange apple quarters decoratively, cut sides up, in skillet and sprinkle walnuts evenly in between apples. Cook mixture, undisturbed, 25 to 35 minutes, or until apples are tender in centers and sugar is a golden caramel.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Make cake batter while topping is cooking:
- Peel apple and chop fine.
- In a bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- In another bowl with an electric mixer beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and ginger and add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in sour cream and with mixer on low speed beat in flour mixture gradually until just combined. Fold chopped apple into batter.
- Remove skillet from heat and spoon batter evenly over topping. With a metal spatula spread batter (being careful not to disturb topping), leaving a 1/4-inch border of cooked apples uncovered. If using a non-stick skillet with a plastic handle, wrap handle in a double thickness of foil. Put skillet in a shallow baking pan and bake cake in middle of oven 25 to 35 minutes, or until a tester comes out with crumbs adhering and cake is golden brown. Cool cake in skillet on a rack 10 minutes. Run a thin knife around edge of skillet and carefully invert cake onto a plate.
- Serve cake warm or at room temperature with caramel sauce and whipped cream.
- To make Calvados caramel sauce:
- In a dry heavy saucepan (about 2 quarts) cook sugar over moderate heat, stirring with a fork, until melted and cook without stirring, swirling pan, until a golden caramel. Remove pan from heat and carefully add water and brandy down side of pan (caramel will bubble and steam). Return pan to heat and simmer, stirring, until caramel is dissolved. Stir in butter. Sauce may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered. Reheat sauce to warm before serving.
- Makes about 1 1/4 cups.

CARAMEL-APPLE WALNUT CAKE
Chunks of toothsome fresh apple, embedded in a delicious vanilla-scented cake, are complemented by walnuts and caramel. Lightly salting the walnuts adds to the flavor of both nuts and caramel. This recipe was received in an email this morning that I received from King Arthur Flour.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9" round cake pan at least 2" deep; or a 9" springform pan.
- Spread the walnuts in a single layer in an ungreased pan, and bake them for 8 to 10 minutes, until they're a light golden brown. Remove them from the oven, and sprinkle very lightly with salt. Set them aside.
- Beat together the sugar, butter, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and vanilla till smooth.
- Add the eggs. Beat till thoroughly combined.
- Stir in the sour cream or yogurt alternately with the flour, using the low speed of your mixer. The batter will be stiff.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula as best you can.
- Toss the apple wedges with the sugar and vanilla till apples are thoroughly coated.
- Arrange the apples atop the cake, pushing them into the stiff batter gently so they're partially submerged.
- Bake the cake for 65 minutes, till it's golden brown on top and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven, and turn it out onto a rack, apple-side up.
- Place the caramel and cream in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat till the cream is showing bubbles, and the caramel is soft.
- Stir the caramel and cream till smooth.
- Spoon the caramel over the cake, dripping it down into the crevices around the apples.
- Scatter the walnuts on top. Serve warm, or at room temperature.
