French pastries conjure images of being “fabulous, fancy, and flamboyant.” France has elevated the skill of baking pastries and baked products, but the nation is also renowned for its straightforward, rustic desserts—aside from the show-stoppers found in the Pâtisserie window. My favorite is this simple yet delicious French apple cake.
Ingredients
- 3 large baking apples (such as Honeycrisp)
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons dark rum
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons white sugar for the top
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius. Line the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper and grease it with butter.
- Apples should be cored and peeled, or left skin on, and then cut into 1/4–3/8-inch cubes. A bit smaller is fine, but any larger will result in cubes that are not roasted to a suitable tenderness. Place into a big dish and mix with vinegar (apple cider).
- In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Using an electric mixer, combine butter, 1/2 cup white sugar, and brown sugar in a separate bowl and beat until frothy and light. Add 1 egg and beat on high speed until the mixture is smooth and the egg is fully absorbed. Repeat after adding the second egg. Stir in 1/2 of the flour mixture, the rum, and also the vanilla essence. Using a spatula, fold in the remaining flour after it has vanished.
- Apples should be folded into batter until well combined. Make sure the batter is packed into the prepared pan completely when transferring it. Dust with the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar and smooth the top.
- Bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, in a preheated oven.
- After removing the cake from the oven, give it about 30 minutes to cool in the pan. Slide the cooled cake onto a wire rack, cover it with a serving plate, and also turn the cake over again. After dusting powdered sugar over top, serve 카지노사이트.
