My fiances mother sent me this recipe of her grandmothers to try. My guy has been dying for me to make this for over a year, so finally I did. It was so good I wanted to share it with all of you:
Apple Dutch Cake
Grandmother McCabe's recipe
-1 1/2 sticks softened butter
-1 1/2 cups sugar
-3 eggs
-3 cups flour
-3 tsp baking powder
-1/2 tsp salt
-3/4 cup whole milk
-1 tsp vanilla
-1 bag (3lbs) apples
mix above ingredients (except apples) until smooth
pour 1/2 of the batter into a 14x9x2 greased pan
cover with a layer of thin sliced apples using 1/2 of the apples
sprinkle the apples with sugar&cinnamon
pour the other 1/2 of the batter over the layer of sliced apples
spread it out as evenly as you can
slice the remaining apples thinly over the batter
sprinkle the top with sugar&cinnamon
bake at 350 uncovered 50-60 minutes until a knife inserted comes out clean
ENJOY!!!!
a tip for you: when pouring the batter in bottom of pan try to have a little bit more than 1/2 left for the top because it will be hard to spread cleanly over the apples!
When I was making it I used a 13x9 pan instead of 14x9 and it seemed like there were too many apples and not enough batter BUT it came out really good.
An action shot had to be taken of my fiance enjoying it for his mom
