CARAMEL-APPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
The best part about the classic pineapple upside-down cake is its gooey fruit topping, and this fresh take on the beloved dessert is no exception. We replaced canned pineapple with fresh apple slices whose tart flavor is the perfect balance to a sticky-sweet caramel sauce. We don't like to play favorites, but this topping plus a tender vanilla scratch cake equals an easy modern-day treat that may just outdo the original.

- In 1-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Stir in brown sugar. Heat to boiling; remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Pour into pan; spread evenly. Arrange apple wedges over brown sugar mixture, overlapping tightly and making 2 layers if necessary.
- In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and the salt; set aside. In large bowl, beat 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, until fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until smooth. Add vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture alternately with milk, beating after each addition until smooth. Spread batter over apple wedges in brown sugar mixture.
- Bake 55 to 65 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on cooling rack 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat whipping cream on high speed until it begins to thicken. Gradually add 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, beating until soft peaks form.

CARAMEL APPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
This is truly a wonderful fall treat! It is warmly spiced, not overly sweet, and those tender, buttery caramel apples on top are a lovely touch. Serve this lightly warmed with vanilla ice cream, or call it a coffee cake and serve it for breakfast-your choice!

Steps:
- Spray an 8- or 9-inch round cake pan with nonstick spray.
- Combine butter and brown sugar for topping in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until butter has melted and mixture begins to simmer gently, 3 to 4 minutes. Don't let the caramel mixture come to a boil; just allow it to bubble gently for a couple of minutes so it can thicken slightly.
- Pour into the prepared cake pan, then arrange apple slices all around the pan as desired. Place in the refrigerator so the topping can set while you prepare the cake.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
- Beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until light in color and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes, scraping down the bottom and sides as needed. Blend in eggs, incorporating slowly and scraping down the sides again, as needed. Mix in vanilla. Add in dry ingredients on low speed, blending just until combined; batter will be thick.
- Remove the cake pan from the refrigerator. Gently spread the thick batter over the topping, trying not to disturb the apples too much.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and set on a cooling rack for 15 minutes.
- Place a plate over the top of the pan, then carefully invert it, allowing the cake to release from the pan onto the plate. Let cake cool completely to room temperature, 45 minutes to an hour; the top can be fairly soft and may not cut cleanly while it is still warm.

Steps:
- 1. Butter a standard sized fluted tube pan.
- 2. For caramel, in a saucepan on medium heat, heat sugar and corn syrup, stirring occasionally until it reaches an amber caramel color (10 minutes). Make sure not to cook the caramel on too high of a heat or it will get too thick.
- 3. Reduce heat to medium and add the 2 Tbsp butter and milk - this will splatter, BE CAREFUL. Stir until combined. Pour caramel about 1/2-3/4 inch deep in the tube pan. Reserve any other caramel for topping the cake. Let set for about 15 minutes.
- 4. Place sliced apples in a decorative pattern in the caramel at the bottom of the pan. Make sure to fill all cracks. Thicker slices work better than thin apple slices for this step.
- 5. For the cake, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- 6. In a mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time until evenly combined.
- 7. In another bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, powder, and baking soda. Whisk together.
- 8. Mix the yogurt, vanilla, and orange juice in another bowl.
- 9. Alternately add yogurt mixture and flour mixture in two batches to the butter, sugar, and eggs.
- 10. Finishing with the flour mixture.
- 11. Fold in chopped apples by hand.
- 12. Spread the cake mixture in the pan over the apples and caramel.
- 13. Bake at 350 degrees 45 minutes to one hour.
- 14. Cool completely. To unmold, set the cake in the bottom of a skillet with simmering water 3-5 minutes to soften the caramel. Invert onto plate.
- 15. Slice and serve with vanilla ice cream and remaining caramel sauce.

- Combine butter and brown sugar together in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk occasionally until butter has melted. Cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute as mixture thickens. Remove from heat and whisk in the cinnamon and vanilla extract. Pour into an ungreased 9×2 inch pie dish or round cake pan. (Make sure the pan is 2 inches deep. I recommend this pie dish, which is 1.8 inches deep but I never have an overflow issue.) Arrange the apple slices neatly on top, overlapping where necessary. See photo above. Place pan in the refrigerator for a few minutes as you prepare the cake batter. This helps solidify or “set” the topping’s arrangement.
- Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add both sugars and beat on high speed until creamed together, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. On high speed, beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until combined. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl as needed. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Turn the mixer onto low speed and as the mixer runs, slowly pour in the milk. Beat on low speed just until all of the ingredients are combined. Do not over-mix. You may need to whisk it all by hand to make sure there are no lumps at the bottom of the bowl. The batter will be slightly thick.
