Apple Lingonberry Cake
Ingredients
3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
6 tbsp fine cane sugar (1/4 +2 tbsp)
2 eggs
6 tbsp unsalted butter (softened)
2 tbsp whole milk
1/2 tsp vanilla paste
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 honey crips apple
6 tbsp lingonberry preserves or jam
Direction
Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 5" or 6" cake pan with butter, then lightly dust with flour.
In a medium-sized bowl, add the softened butter and sugar. Mix together using a spatula until well combined and smooth. Whisk in one egg at a time, then add the vanilla, almond extract, and milk.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Pour half of the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and fold until combined. Add the remaining dry ingredients and fold until smooth.
Peel and slice the apple into even pieces. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Spoon 3 tablespoons of the lingonberry onto the batter and gently spread it. Arrange the apple slices on top of the cake in any pattern you like. Top with the remaining 3 tablespoons of lingonberry.
Place the cake in the oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set. Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 15 minutes.
Turn the cake out of the pan and flip it so the apples and lingonberry are facing up. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and serve. Enjoy
Notes
My absolute favorite cake in the world, made into a small, personal-sized cake that you can enjoy anytime you like. Don’t be afraid to add more lingonberry if you wish—there’s always room for more!
Enjoy this one; it’s simple, but SO delicious.
