I make this moist and tangy coffee cake for small gatherings or to give to a friend in need of a little cheer. Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
3/4 teaspoon apple pie spice |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
1/3 cup sugar |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
1 tablespoon sliced almonds |
glaze: |
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 teaspoon buttermilk |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the apples, brown sugar, lemon juice and apple pie spice. Cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until syrup is thickened and apples are tender, stirring occasionally.
2. In a small bowl, cream butter and sugar. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Spoon batter into a greased 9-in. springform pan. Arrange apple mixture over top; sprinkle with almonds.
3. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack. Remove sides of pan. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over top. Yield: 8 servings.
