Zubereitung von Yankee Apple Cake With Lemon Sauce
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in the softened butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Beat in the eggs and milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- Arrange apple slices neatly over the batter.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of sugar with cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon sauce:
- In a small saucepan, whisk together ¼ cup sugar, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt.
- Gradually whisk in the boiling water until smooth.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens and becomes clear (about 1-2 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, and butter until the butter is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Serve warm cake with a generous spoonful of hot lemon sauce.
