Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons finally chopped crystallized ginger plus additional for garnish
2 tablespoons currants or raisins
1 larger MacIntosh or Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and sliced thin
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

UPSIDE DOWN GINGER APPLE COFFEE CAKE (CLEAN EATING)



Upside Down Ginger Apple Coffee Cake (Clean Eating) image

This is a lovely, healthy recipe that is not overly sweet, but has enough flavor to be well-suited for either brunch or a light dessert. It is from the October 2011 issue of Clean Eating, but I have tweaked it a bit. The original calls for sucanat instead of the sugars and safflower oil instead of canola. Cooking time includes cooling time before inverting.
