Yield: 1 9-inch cake
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 3 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced; 1/2 cup unsalted butter; 1 cup brown sugar; 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg; 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1/2 cup granulated sugar; 2 large eggs; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/2 cup milk

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan generously. Set aside.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth and bubbly.
Pour the butter and sugar mixture into the prepared cake pan, making sure to cover the bottom evenly. Arrange the sliced apples on top in a circular pattern, slightly overlapping each other. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix well.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until you have a smooth batter.
Carefully pour the batter over the arranged apples in the cake pan, spreading it out evenly to cover the fruit.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
Place a serving plate over the cake pan and carefully invert the cake onto the plate. Slowly lift the pan off, revealing the beautifully caramelized apple topping.
Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving. Slice and enjoy with a dollop of freshly whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
