Not enough apples, and they were a little overcooked. At 54 minutes the top was golden but runny on the inside. I cooked only two more minutes but cake tastes dry and overcooked. I used Bisquick original also as noted in recipe. The "caramel" wasn't caramel at all. The brown sugar never melted because it is still granular yet overcooked because it immediately hardened...and I mean HARD - like rock candy. All I got positive from this recipe is that I'll try my own variation using my method of cooked apples instead. Helpful?Yes|No Reply Share More Jennifer Jan 9, 2016 "Not bad...but wouldn't make this again" Jennifer I thought this was just ok. Toasting the pecans before putting it in the pan to bake resulted in burned pecans. The cake just tasted alright, I think it would have been better to use a boxed spice cake mix. I don't think I'd make this again. There were a lot of steps and it just was ok.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cover the bottom of a 10x15-inch baking pan with brown sugar and 2 tablespoons cinnamon. Layer apple slices on top.
• Place flour, apple juice, white sugar, butter, eggs, milk, remaining 1 tablespoon cinnamon, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix until completely smooth, 5 to 10 minutes; the longer you mix, the fluffier the cake will be.
• Pour batter over apples in the baking pan, making sure they are evenly covered.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool for 20 to 30 minutes. Place a large serving dish over the cake and carefully flip over.

Steps:

• Pour butter into an ungreased 9-in. round baking pan; sprinkle with 1/2 cup brown sugar. Arrange apples in a single layer over brown sugar; layer with walnuts and remaining brown sugar., In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; add to the creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk and sour cream, beating well after each addition. Beat in brandy if desired., Spoon batter over brown sugar layer. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. Serve warm.

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:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray an 8-by-1 1/2-inch round cake pan with vegetable spray and set aside. In a large nonstick skillet, melt 1 teaspoon butter over medium-high heat. Add the apples, cut side down, and sprinkle them with 3 tablespoons sugar; cook until the apples are tender and caramelized, 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove from heat.
• Arrange the apples, cut side down, in the prepared cake pan so that they fit snugly together. Fill in any cracks with small pieces of apple, so that the batter wont leak through. Set pan aside.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter; set aside. Break egg into a food processor; process for about 5 seconds, then while processor is running, add melted butter and buttermilk through the feed tube.
• In a small bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, spices, baking powder, and salt. Add dry ingredients to mixture in food processor. Cover and pulse until batter is combined, about 20 pulses.
• Pour the batter over sliced apples. Using a spatula, spread batter to completely cover the apples. Bake until cake is golden brown and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for about 15 minutes before inverting cake onto a serving plate.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray. In medium bowl, mix brown sugar, melted butter and corn syrup. Add pecans, stirring to coat. Spread evenly in bottom of pan.
• In large bowl, beat cake mix, sour cream, water, oil, eggs and vanilla with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Pour batter over pecan mixture in pan.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 1 minute. Run knife around edges of pan to loosen cake. Place heatproof serving plate over pan; turn plate and pan over. Remove pan; spoon any topping in pan onto cake. Serve warm or at room temperature.
