Dessert, To Go: Baby Apple Cakes

Friday, July 19, 2013 by Darla

Baby Apple Cakes | ©BakingdomThere’s something about moving that always makes you want new stuff. It doesn’t matter if your moving across town or across the country, from a house to an apartment, or vice versa…you want new stuff.

It’s like a disease. One that I’m currently suffering through. In particular, I want new bedding.

Fluffy, girly, poufy, frilly bedding.

There’s really no point here. Just telling you I want new bedding. You’re welcome.

Up until today, I had lots of baking to do to distract me from shopping, but now, I’m all prepared for the move, my mixers are packed away and waiting for storage, and all I have is time. And the internet.

Here, have one of these cakes…take them on a picnic…I’m going window shopping.

Baby Caramel Apple Cakes | ©BakingdomOh…take some caramel sauce, too. Trust me.

Mini Apple Cakes
Makes 12 standard muffin-sized cakes

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup milk
1 apple, cored and cut into 1/4″ slices
raw sugar
cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat a 12-cup muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.

In a large bowl, or in a standing mixer, mix the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Stir in the egg, zest, and vanilla until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.

Add 1/3 of the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Stir in half of the milk until combined. Repeat with the remaining flour and milk, alternating and finishing with the flour (flour-milk-flour-milk-flour).

Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups. Lay 3 to 4 apple slices on each cake, and sprinkle generously with raw sugar. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Allow to cool completely before serving.

I’m ready for new adventures, new memories, more kindness, and lots of healing in 2021. Among so many things I want for you, I’m especially wishing you belly laughs, abundant pleasure, endless excitement, and great food in the new year. Cheers and  happy New Year, my friends!
I always knew that I would be bounding as Olaf tod I always knew that I would be bounding as Olaf today because he is the epitome of a happy character. But it’s not just Olaf...I’m also bounding today as @joshgad, in a roundabout way, because Josh has brought so much joy and compassion to people. Yes, with his portrayal of Olaf (and so many other characters), but also, and mainly, as himself. He’s such a joyful and kind person, it has been a pleasure laughing and crying along with him, and Olaf, this year. Thank you, sir, for making my 2020 more magical and joyful than it would have been without you!

I couldn’t pick just a Remy quote for today because the one by Chef Gusteau is one of my favorites from any movie. I think it’s clear from several of my other bounds this month that food is one of my love languages, and Remy and Gusteau totally get it.
