How to Make Apple Upside Down Sour Cream Cake

4. In a medium bowl, gently toss 6 medium apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced), 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup slivered almonds, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
5. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the bread crumbs in the pan.
6. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
7. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 cup ground almonds.
8. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 cups all-purpose flour until smooth.
9. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
