Everyone has their favorite simple and delicious apple cake and this Cinnamon Glaze Apple Cake is definitely my choice, by far!
A simple vanilla and apple cake base topped with the most beautiful, flower-like, apple-slice arrangement and drizzled with a heavy cream, powdered sugar and cinnamon glaze over the top. I don’t think there is a recipe that beats this cake!
To make Cinnamon Glaze Apple Cake, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 °F and lightly grease or line the base of a 9-inch springform with cooking spray or baking parchment paper.
Using an electric whisk, beat eggs and sugar on high speed for 2-3 minutes until light yellow and thickened to triple the size.
With the electric beater lowered to a low speed, beat in the vanilla, flour, baking soda and vinegar and combine well.
Combine apples with batter mix and transfer to the prepared springform baking pan.
Bake for 55-60 minutes until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Rest cake for 10 minutes before removing from pan and allow to cool completely.
Prepare a bowl of ice-cold water and set aside. Blanch sliced apples in a pot of boiling water for less than a minute, to soften. Remove apples and transfer immediately to the ice water to stop the cooking process. Dry and drain excess water on a paper towel.
Arrange apples on top of the baked cake, in circles, starting outwards working towards the center, forming a rose.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat heavy cream and add powdered sugar and cinnamon. Whisk until smooth and heated through. Allow to cool a little before using. (Do not cool too long or glaze will harden.)
Drizzle glaze over cake and serve.
