Equipment

  • Cake Pan I like my springform pan the most.
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Apple Peeler

Ingredients

  • 2½ Cups Diced Apple About two medium apples.
  • 1 Tsp Cinnamon
  • ¼ Tsp Salt
  • 2 Tsp White Sugar
  • ¾ Cup Butter Melted
  • ¼ Cup Brown Sugar
  • ¾ Cup Buttermilk Room Temp
  • 1½ Cups Flour
  • 1 Tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 Tsp Baking Powder

Instructions

  • Peel, core, and dice your apples to a size you like. I kept mine a bit on the larger side but it doesn't matter except for your preferred texture at the end.
    2½ Cups Diced Apple
  • In a bowl, add the apples, cinnamon, salt, and white sugar, and mix until the apples are well coated. Set this aside for about 2-3 hours to prepare the apples.

  • Preheat your oven to 350℉. Grease your cake pan (I use a 9" pan) with some extra butter.
  • Spread the apples over the bottom of the pan and set it aside.
  • In another bowl, mix together the brown sugar, flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Add in the melted butter and buttermilk, and stir until it combines into a batter.

  • Spoon the batter over the apples and spread to cover evenly. It'll be thick for a cake batter, but that's fine.
  • Bake your cake for 25-30 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from the oven, let cool, and serve with ice cream, whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel, or whatever you like!
