Cinnamon Apple Sheet Cake Recipes

CINNAMON APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• To make cake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine granulated sugar, flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a separate mixing bowl, combine eggs, apples, oil and vanilla. Add mixture to the dry ingredients, and stir just until well mixed. Batter will be thick. Pour cake batter into greased 13 x 9-inch pan. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Bake 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. To make Caramel Sauce: Combine butter, sugars, and evaporated milk in medium saucepan over medium high heat. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil for 1 minute. Add cinnamon and vanilla. Cool. Cut cake and serve with caramel sauce. If desired, top with ice cream or whipped topping.

APPLE SHEET CAKE WITH CINNAMON CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Prepare the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees and set a rack in the center. Butter and flour a 9-by-13-inch glass or light colored metal baking pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the light brown sugar and eggs until pale and foamy. Add the applesauce, oil, spices and salt. Whisk to combine.
• Add the 2 cups flour, baking powder and baking soda, and whisk until well combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and firmly tap the pan on a countertop a few times to release air bubbles. Bake the cake until golden and puffed, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack.
• When the cake is cool, make the frosting: Add the cream cheese, butter and cinnamon to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high until smooth, stopping the mixer occasionally to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl. Turn the speed to low, and slowly add the confectioners' sugar. Mix until the sugar is moistened, then turn the speed up to medium-high and whip until smooth and fluffy.
• Spread the frosting over the cooled cake and serve. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.

CINNAMON APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla until well blended. In another bowl, whisk flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into sugar mixture (batter will be thick). Fold in apples. Spread into a greased and floured 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. , For topping, beat the butter, sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir in coconut and walnuts; mix well. Sprinkle over the batter. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

CINNAMON APPLE SHEET CAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Lightly spray a 9-by-13-inch pan with nonstick spray, and line with parchment paper, leaving about 2 inches of excess on each side to eventually help you lift the cooked cake out of the pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.
• In a small pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to heat the butter, stirring occasionally, until the solids begin to brown and the butter smells nutty, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and cool for 20 minutes.
• Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl and whisk to combine. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well to fully incorporate each before adding the next. Add the vanilla and whisk to combine.
• Add about half of the flour mixture and whisk to incorporate. (If necessary, switch to a spatula or wooden spoon at this point.) Add the sour cream and mix to combine. Add the remaining flour and mix to combine.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Press the 12 apple segments partly into the batter, spacing them evenly throughout and keeping in mind that you want each of 12 square slices to have one apple quarter.
• Transfer to the oven and bake for 60 to 70 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out clean, and you should be able to easily pierce an apple with a small knife. Let the cake cool completely in the pan.
• Just before serving, use the parchment flaps to lift the cake out of the pan. Combine the confectioners' sugar with the cinnamon and dust the surface of the cake generously with the cinnamon sugar. Cut into 12 square pieces or 24 triangles.
