How to Make Apple Or Pear Cake
- **Cake Batter:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan or springform pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the peeled and diced apples or pears.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- **Decadent Topping:** While the cake is baking, prepare the topping. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour, and milk.
- Bring the mixture to a slow boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens (about 3 minutes).
- Remove the cake from the oven and immediately pour the warm topping evenly over the top.
- Return the cake to the oven for an additional 2-4 minutes, or until the topping is lightly browned and bubbly.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
