Directions
Apple Cake (Dorie Greenspan), A really simple and moist cake that is more apple than cake It’s really nice to use a variety of apples, so that you have some apples that are crisp, some soft, some sweet, and some tart Recipe is from Dorie Greenspan’s newest cookbook, Around My French Table: More Than 300 Recipes From My Home to Yours where it’s called Marie-Hlne’s Apple Cake The cake can be served warm or at room temperature, with or without a little softly whipped, barely sweetened heavy cream or a spoonful of ice cream , Delicious! My only regret was that there were no leftovers! I added cardamon as I do to many pastries Served at a friend’s house for Jewish new year, although I’m not certain how traditional the recipe is I whipped cream on the side Yummm

in a Medium Bowl, Beat the Eggs With a Whisk Until Theyre Foamy. Pour in the Sugar and Whisk For a Minute or So to Blend. Whisk in the Rum and Vanilla. Whisk in Half the Flour and When It Is Incorporated, Add Half the Melted Butter, Followed by the Rest of the Flour and the Remaining Butter, Mixing Gently After Each Addition So That You Have a Smooth, Rather Thick Batter. Switch to a Rubber Spatula and Fold in the Apples, Turning the Fruit So That It's Coated With Batter. Scrape the Mix Into the Pan and Poke It Around a Little With the Spatula So That It's Evenish. |

Carefully Run a Blunt Knife Around the Edges of the Cake and Remove the Sides of the Springform Pan. (open the Springform Slowly, and Before Its Fully Opened, Make Sure There Aren't Any Apples Stuck to It.) Allow the Cake to Cool Until It Is Just Slightly Warm or at Room Temperature. If You Want to Remove the Cake from the Bottom of the Springform Pan, Wait Until the Cake Is Almost Cooled, Then Run a Long Spatula Between the Cake and the Pan, Cover the Top of the Cake With a Piece of Parchment or Wax Paper, and Invert It Onto a Rack. Carefully Remove the Bottom of the Pan and Turn the Cake Over Onto a Serving Dish. |
