Fluffy Swedish Apple Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Whisk oil, white sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla together in a separate bowl. Stir flour mixture into sugar mixture; fold apples and 1 1/2 cups walnuts into batter. Pour batter into a 10x13-inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cake is set, about 1 hour. Pierce surface of cake in several places with a large fork.
• Stir brown sugar, butter, and milk together in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until sugar is dissolved and mixture boils, about 2 1/2 minutes. Sprinkle 1/2 cup walnuts over hot cake and pour brown sugar mixture over the top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mix apple slices with lemon juice.
• Fill a greased 2-quart casserole (or 8 inch square Pyrex dish) with apple slices.
• Sprinkle apples with 1 Tbs sugar and ground cinnamon.
• Mix together melted butter, sugar, flour, egg, and nuts to form a doughy batter.
• Scrape batter on top of apples and smooth out.
• Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour or until top is golden.
• Let cool for 15 minutes in pan on rack and then serve from pan with ice cream--do not invert. Or let cool completely in pan and serve room temperature.

Steps:

• Cream sugar and shortening.
• Add egg and salt.
• Combine with flour, spices, and soda.
• Mix in apples and nuts last.
• Pour in greased 9X13" pan.
• Bake 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
• Spread topping at once over hot cake. It will seem like you don't have enough topping, but just use a fork and knife to spread little chunks all over the cake. Trust me! It's plenty!
• Return to oven for about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Grease and flour pan, preferably an 8½-inch or 9-inch spring form pan.
• Sift together flour and baking powder. Set aside.
• In a medium-sized mixing bowl beat butter until light. Gradually beat in sugar until fluffy. Beat in first egg, then second egg. Beat in ¼ cup of flour mixture, then third egg. Slowly mix in remaining flour mixture, alternating with the ¼ cup of milk or water. Pour into prepared pan and smooth top.
• Peel apples; core and cut each into 6 to 8 wedges. Mix the ½ cup sugar with cinnamon. Roll apple wedges in cinnamon sugar and press wedges into cake batter all over the entire cake. Sprinkle any remaining cinnamon sugar over the top of the cake, and if desired strew a few slivered almonds over the top (optional).
• Bake approximately 1 - 1¼ hours, more or less, depending on pan size, until cake tests done when a cake tester is inserted in the center of the cake. Cool briefly, then remove from pan.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line a 20 x 29cm baking tray with baking parchment.
• For the filling, zest the lemon half and leave aside for the dough. Peel, core and thinly slice the apples, then squeeze over the juice of the lemon to stop the fruit turning brown. Put the apples in a large pan and add the sugar, 200ml water and cinnamon. Cook for 5 mins, then remove from the heat and leave to cool in the liquid (you'll need this later).
• To make the dough, put the flour and baking powder in a food processor or into a large bowl and pulse or stir to combine. Add the butter and mix again until the mixture is sandy. Add the sugar, egg yolks and egg, yogurt, lemon zest and vanilla extract and mix into a dough. Tip it out onto a floured surface. Bring it together with your hands and roll it into a ball.
• Split the dough in half, wrap one half in cling film and freeze for 1 hr. Roll out the other dough half so that it is big enough to fill the bottom of the lined tray. With the palm of your hand, push the dough about halfway up the sides of the tray until the whole base is covered. Prick the dough with a fork and bake in the oven for about 15 mins until it is golden and lightly springy to the touch.
• Spoon over the apple filling, with about half the cooking liquid, then set aside.
• Remove the dough from the freezer and coarsely grate, as you would a block of cheese. Sprinkle the grated dough over the apples and bake for 40-45 mins until it is golden and the topping has cooked through. Leave to cool completely, dust with icing sugar, then cut into squares. Whip the cream until thick, stir in the cinnamon and serve alongside the cake.

Steps:

• Cream shortening, gradually add sugar.
• Add eggs and vanilla, and beat well.
• Sift flour with salt, spices and soda.
• Mix into first blend. Add apples and nuts.
• Spread into greased and floured 8 x 12 pan.
• Bake at 350 for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and spread topping.
• Return to oven and bake 25 minutes longer until done.
• Topping: Combine brown sugar with milk and butter in saucepan. Heat slowly until well blended. Spread over partially baked cake and bake as directed.
