Try my Apple Fritter Bread too! So my husband refuses to eat breakfast for dinner. Like ever. BUT he will eat dinner for breakfast. (????) Basically, no pancakes for dinner, no way, but Sesame Chicken for breakfast, yes please. And quite honestly, I never really gave it much thought until our little guys came along…Kids historically LOVE breakfast for dinner. But I have to deprive my children this milestone of childhood because the husband puts his foot down. Oh, and also, anywhere that SELLS breakfast for dinner he will deny. iHop? Only before 11:00 am. A Diner? Drag him kicking and screaming. And don’t even mention Cracker Barrel. Sighhhhhhh. BUT sometimes I like to trick him and serve breakfast for dessert…He doesn’t even know what’s happening. I am basically a dessert wizard. Case in point…Apple Fritter Cake. Cake that derived from a breakfast food, shape-shifted into a cake, disguised as dessert.
How to Make Apple Fritter Cake
This apple cake cake is so soft and moist..loaded with apples and cinnamon. Chop up a couple apples… You’ll need about 2 cups of diced apples… The trick for this cake is cooking your apples to make them soft and delicious. Cook them up with some sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch and water… Let your apples cool. The syrup will thicken up and it will be glorious. Meanwhile make your cake batter. You’ll need to add some applesauce to your butter and sugar… Add in some eggs and vanilla too. The batter will look a little odd, but it’s ok. Next add in your dry ingredients… And some Greek yogurt. Alternate them as you add them. Yes, you could sub this for sour cream too! Then spread half of the batter in a prepared 9×13. Pour your delicious apple concoction up on top… Then sprinkle some brown sugar and cinnamon on top of that.Finish by spreading the remainder of your batter to cover the apples and a little more brown sugar. Can you believe this is real life? When your cake is baked, you need to poke it a little bit. Grab a butter knife and stab it 31 times. Exactly. Then whip up a little glaze. It’s just a little powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla. Then pour this over top of your holey-hot cake.The glaze will coat the cake and sink in, leaving you with a crispy, sugary coating. Let the heavens open up and sing to you now… Let it cool a few minutes and then stick your face in it. Or use a fork. Whatever.
