Salted Caramel Apple Cake Recipe.

Ingredients

Apple Cake

• 2 cups sugar
• 1 cup coconut cooking oil or vegetable oil
• 3 1/2 cups diced apples peeled first
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 cups self-rising flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 3 beaten eggs
• optional: 3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans I used pecans

Salted Caramel Sauce

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 3/4 teaspoon finely ground sea salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

Apple Cake

• Grease and flour a tube pan.
• Preheat oven to 350°.
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together sugar, self-rising flour and cinnamon until combined.
• Stir in beaten eggs, cooking oil and vanilla.
• Stir in diced apples (and optional nuts) until just combined.
• (Batter will be very thick, maybe even crumbly.)
• Spoon batter into prepared pan.
• Bake for 50 - 60 minutes. (Check with cake tester at the 50 minute mark.)
• Remove from oven and let cool on a rack 20-30 minutes until warm.
• Loosen all edges including around the center tube with a sharp knife before turning out onto a cake platter.

Salted Caramel Sauce

• In a medium-sized sauce pan stir together 1/4 cup cold water and granulated sugar until combined.
• Set over medium-high heat on the stove top and cook 9 -11 minutes without stirring until mixture is a deep amber color.
• Start checking closely at the 8 minute mark.
• Meanwhile, warm heavy cream and butter together with sea salt in a small sauce pan over medium heat. (Absolutely do not boil.)
• When sugar and water mixture is a deep amber color, slowly whisk in the warm cream and butter mixture.
• Whisk over the heat until it's smooth a minute or two, then remove from the heat.
• Salted caramel sauce will thicken up as it cools.
• When sauce is still warm, spoon over apple cake and cascade down the sides.
• (Re-heating the caramel sauce will thin it.)
