Time 1h10m

Yield 1 cake, 9-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 medium apples, sliced thin (I used Granny Smith)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup sugar (white or brown)
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter (or shortening)
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Topping.
  • It is not necessary to peel the apples, but I do.
  • Combine the sliced apples,lemon juice,sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Combine dry ingredients - flour,baking powder and salt in a bowl, set aside.
  • In a large bowl cream butter, add sugar gradually, beat well.
  • Beat eggs into creamed mixture.
  • Measure sour cream into a separate bowl, add baking soda, stir together; the cream will rise up and become fluffy.
  • Add sour cream to the batter alternately with the dry ingredients. Blend well.
  • Pour half the batter into a greased and floured 9" square cake pan, top with half the apple mixture.
  • Add remaining batter and arrange rest of the apples on top.
  • Bake in 325 degree oven for 50-60 minutes.
  • Especially nice served warm. Enjoy!
