- 2 apples (peeled, divided use)
- ¼ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup butter (melted)
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup milk
Steps
Peel and core the apples. Slice one apple into ¼-inch thick slices. Chop the other apple into ¼-inch chunks so you have ½ cup of chopped apples (you may have a bit of extra apple, it can be added to the topping or just eaten as a snack). If you have a soft variety of apple, cut it slightly thicker.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Pour ¼ cup melted butter into a 9" round pan. Add brown sugar and cinnamon. Stir to combine and spread evenly on the bottom of the pan. Arrange the apple slices in an even layer on the brown sugar. Set aside.
Combine sugar & melted butter. Stir in egg, lemon juice, and vanilla.
In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk to the butter mixture. Stir just until combined. Fold the in chopped apples.
Spread the batter over the apple slices and bake 32-36 minutes or just until a toothpick comes out clean.
Remove from the oven, place on a wire rack, and let cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes.
Run a knife or rubber spatula along the edge of the cake and invert onto a platter. Serve warm with ice cream if desired.
