Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
4 large eggs at room temperature
1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 large golden delicious apple, peeled, cored and diced fine
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
1/2 teaspoon orange extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush one-half tablespoon of the butter in six-cup loaf pan. Dust with tablespoon of sugar.
  • Place the eggs in the bowl of electric mixer. Add the remaining sugar, beat to combine, then beat over high speed, with a wire whisk attachment, if possible, until mixture is very light and the consistency of softly whipped cream, at least five minutes.
  • Meanwhile, sift the flour and baking powder together and set aside.
  • When the eggs and sugar have been whipped sufficiently, fold in the flour mixture by hand, then fold in the diced apple, rosemary, orange extract and remaining melted butter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until the cake has risen, is evenly browned and a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool briefly on a rack, then unmold to permit them to complete their cooling.
