How to Make Baked Apple Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a square 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Mix together 1/2 cup marzipan (finely chopped), 1/4 cup raisins, and 1 tablespoon rum (or apple juice for kids).
- Core 4-6 small apples (about 2 inches in diameter) and remove seeds.
- Stuff apples with the marzipan-raisin mixture.
- Cut one cinnamon stick into thirds lengthwise and insert one piece into each apple.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and 1 cup caster sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in 1/2 cup slivered almonds.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly to cover the bottom.
- Arrange the stuffed apples on top of the batter.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean and the apples are tender.
- Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
