1889 Cake Recipe Revamped Apple Upside Down Cake - Glen And Friends Cooking

1889 Cake Recipe Revamped Apple Upside Down Cake - Glen And Friends Cooking
Today Glen Cooks a pretty sturdy cake recipe from 1889 - and we drag it into the future with some caramel, spices, and apples. This makes a great caramel apple upside down cake.

Ingredients:
Caramel:
60 mL (¼ cup) butter
125 mL (½ cup) brown sugar
Pinch of salt
2 mL (½ tsp) cinnamon
2 apples-peeled, cored and cut into wedges

Cake:
2 eggs
250 mL (1 cup) sugar
250 mL (1 cup) sour cream
5 mL (1 tsp) pure vanilla extract
2 mL (½ tsp) baking soda
500 mL (2 cups) flour
7 mL (1 ½ tsp) ground cinnamon
2 mL (½ tsp) ground ginger
1 mL (¼ tsp) ground nutmeg
2 mL (½ tsp)  salt

Method:
Preheat oven to 180ºC (350ºF), grease and line a 9” round cake pan.
Combine butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a pot over medium heat.
Melt together and bring just to a simmer, then pour into base of cake pan.
Arrange apple pieces in the caramel.
Whisk the eggs until light and fluffy, then whisk in the sugar.
Whisk in the sour cream and vanilla.
Combine together the dry ingredients, then slowly stir these into the egg mixture.
Transfer to the cake pan over the apples, smooth the top, and bake for 30-35 minutes.
(probably a good idea to put a sheet pan under the cake pan.

I always just love the "Happy Dance" after the tasting.

[redoorn]

Because of channels like yours I've become more adventurous in the kitchen. Some dishes turn out good, then I have to try and duplicate it. Some are not so good.
It is like Julie said. 'What's the worst that can happen?'

[jamesellsworth]

It is autumn: apple time! Time to make this upside-down cake.

[marilyn]

Can you just imagine apricot? Or peach, or nectarine? Perfect recipe you've made there, Glen! Thanks!

[GlenAndFriendsCooking]

Thanks for watching Everyone! How would you change the flavours in this cake?

[joyellan]

I really adore that happy dance, Glen!

[awalkthroughtorah]

I may be crazy, but I would put strussel on top so you have crunch and the syrup on the bottom when you flip it. Maybe serve with ice cream or whipped cream to cut the sweetness.

If you use pears, I'd recommend adding a little bit of ginger to the caramel. Another flavor that would work well is cherry with almond and vanilla in the cake.

Glenn did his Happy Dance! We have a winner!

[victoriabrooks]

I'm thinking orange cranberry would be lovely.

I began watching you on Facebook then switched to your YouTube because it was way better... I gotta say, I love how neatly you cook. So many of the Facebook cooking videos, they're just so messy. They're wasteful too!
I know it's a weird thing to enjoy, but there it is... Lol
Also, I find your voice and manner very relaxing ❤️

German apple pancake in the oven sounds good.

[angelarex]

I had the chance to make this tonight. It really deserves the little happy dance.

Love when you reboot an old recipe 👍🏼🍎

[MaxximusRadimus]

Thanks for this one Glen! We have had guests over the weekend for a memorial and I pulled this out for a quick dessert. It was warm, comforting and a big hit!

[jerrthomas]

I can’t believe you two don’t have a cup of coffee or tea every time you have dessert.

[Zarainify]

Brilliant, love your ideas and how you try to encourage people to be more creative and trust themselves more with baking!

[MrRShoaf]

I was waiting for this update, and I wasn't disappointed.

[norahodge]

Good Lord, how do you two keep your figures with the wonderful food you make?

[kabel]

Had I not read the title, from the thumbnail I would have guessed this was a meatloaf LOL!
