Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Generously grease a round 9-inch (23cm) cake pan.
- Slice the apples with a mandoline to get them super thin, like paper.
- Or if that’s not possible, as close to paper as possible.
- Sauce.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan.
- Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and vanilla.
- Keep over medium heat and cook for about 3 minutes until smooth and thickened slightly.
- Pour the caramel into the greased cake pan and top with the apple slices.
- Sally does this the other way around but I loved how it turned out with the caramel on the outside.
- Cake.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Beat the remaining butter and brown sugar until creamy.
- Add the eggs and milk and beat until incorporated.
- Stir in the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
- Pour the cake on top of the caramel and apple layer in the cake pan.
- Bake for 45 minutes.
- Let cool for 10 minutes (Sally says 10 minutes is just right, and mine came out of the pan perfectly at 10).
- Invert onto a plate and tap the top until the cake comes out onto the plate.
- Sprinkle with sea salt and serve with vanilla ice cream.
- Die and go to caramel apple heaven.
- The end.
