How to Make Amaretto Apple Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour 4 mini-loaf pans or 1 (9x5 inch) loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup milk and ¼ cup amaretto, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and chopped apples.
  7. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan(s).
  8. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. For mini-loaves, reduce baking time to 35-40 minutes.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy!
