Servings 8 slices
Ingredients
- 3 large apples- peeled, cored, cut into chunks i.e. Honey Crisp, Jazz, Envy
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2+ cup walnuts, chopped optional
- 1/2 cup caramel ice cream sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped apples, sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Once mixed, add in flour, baking powder, salt, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. If you’re a fan of a little crunch, toss in some walnuts
- Pour the batter into a greased 9″ or 10″ cake pan, ensuring it’s evenly distributed. Then, place it in preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick or knife inserted into the center comes out clean
- While the cake is still warm in the pan, use a fork to poke small holes all over the top. This will allow the caramel to soak in beautifully. Next, pour the caramel over the hot cake and let it cool in the pan
