- 1 cup caramel sauce homemade or store bought
- 2 large Gala Fuji, Granny Smith, Pink Lady, or HoneyCrisp apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thinly
- 1⅓ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup butter softened
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ¼ cup milk
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray an 9 inch round cake pan with baking spray. Pour caramel into the bottom of the greased pan. Arrange the apples slices in the caramel.
In a medium size bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Set bowl aside.
In a large bowl or mixer, beat together 1 cup sugar and ½ cup butter on medium speed until fluffy. Mix in eggs and vanilla, then beat in dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until the cake batter is smooth and creamy. Pour the batter over the apples and spread evenly.
Bake in oven for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool cake on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
Run a butter knife along the edges of the cake and flip upside down on a large plate. Serve warm.
