This is my mother's apple pie. This is the recipe I use all the time and I love it. I also use a dash of nutmeg so if you wish you can put that in too.

EASY-AS-PIE APPLE CAKE



Easy-as-Pie Apple Cake image

The name of this cake is somewhat deceiving, since most apple cakes are easier than pie (which is actually never that easy if you're making it from scratch). In any case, it's a simple, excellent cake with a tender crumb, subtle spicing and soft pockets of fruit. Serve it plain, or with a dollop of ice cream, whipped cream or crème fraîche.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup/125 grams unbleached all-purpose flour, more as needed
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ounces/57 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick), softened
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 large egg
2 cups diced apples (from about 2 apples)
1/2 cup/57 grams toasted pecans, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
  • In a mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the egg and mix until smooth.
  • With the mixer on low, beat in dry ingredients until smooth (at this point the batter will be quite thick). Fold in the apples and nuts by hand.
  • Spread batter evenly into a greased and floured 9-inch fluted tart or quiche pan with 1-inch sides. (Alternatively you can use a 9-inch cake pan with 1-inch sides.) Bake until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

One bite, and Grandma was right. If you want to learn how to make homemade apple pie filling, this is really the only recipe you need. -Maggie Greene, Granite Falls, Washington

Not your traditional apple pie, this filling is caramelized apples held together with a very glossy, just-thick-enough apple syrup.

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Apple Pie Recipes

Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 pinch salt
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ cup water
1 (15 ounce) package double crust ready-to-use pie crust (such as Pillsbury®)
4 large red apples, cored and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Stir in white sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and water. Bring the syrup to a boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar, then remove from heat.
  • Unroll pie crusts, press one into a 9-inch pie dish, and place the apples into the crust. Unroll the second crust on a work surface, and cut into about 8 1-inch wide strips. Criss-cross the strips over the apples, or weave into a lattice crust. Crimp the bottom crust over the lattice strips with your fingers. Spoon caramel sauce over pie, covering lattice portion of top crust; let remaining sauce drizzle through the crust.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and bake until the crust is golden brown, the caramel on the top crust is set, and the apple filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 more minutes. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
