How to Make Apple Topped Cake
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Add 2 large eggs, 1 large egg white, ½ cup plain yogurt, ½ cup applesauce, ¼ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground allspice, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and thinly sliced apples and ½ cup chopped walnuts.
- In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup packed brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon ground allspice.
- Pour batter into the prepared springform pan. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over the top.
- Bake for 47-52 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before running a knife around the edges to loosen.
- Remove the sides of the pan and transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Refrigerate leftovers.
