Spiced Apple Cake with Brown Butter Icing
Serves 12 Prep 10 mins (+ cooling & 1 hour chilling time) Cooking 40 mins
80g unsalted butter, chopped
½ cup (110g) caster sugar
¼ cup (55g) brown sugar
250g jar apple sauce
1 Coles Australian Free Range Egg
1¾ cups (260g) plain flour, sifted
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda, sifted
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
Salted caramel topping, to serve
Burnt butter icing
170g unsalted butter, chopped
1½ cups (240g) icing sugar mixture, sifted
1 Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 20cm (base measurement) square cake pan and line base and sides with baking paper. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, for 2 mins or until the butter is golden brown. Set aside to cool slightly.
2 Pour the butter into a large bowl. Add the combined sugar, apple sauce and egg and whisk to combine.
3 Place the flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Add apple sauce mixture and stir until just combined. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface.
4 Bake for 30-35 mins or until a skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. Set aside in pan for 10 mins to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
5 Meanwhile, to make the burnt butter icing, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. 6 Cook, stirring, for 3 mins or until butter is golden brown. Transfer to a heatproof bowl. Place in the fridge for 1 hour or until firm.
6 Use an electric mixer to beat the butter in the bowl until very pale. Gradually add icing sugar, in batches, beating well after each addition. Beat for 4 mins or until pale and fluffy.
7 Transfer the cake to a serving plate. Spread the burnt butter icing evenly over the top. Cut into pieces and serve drizzled with caramel topping.
