Apple Fritter Cake



There are many versions of this recipe on Facebook/Pinterest. I made this version and it was absolutely yummy. Not overly sweet. I served it with vanilla ice cream. You could also add walnuts or pecans.

Batter:
3 cups of flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup of sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup butter, melted
6 small apples or 4 large cored, peeled and diced


Topping:
1 cup of butter, cold
1 cup of brown sugar
2 tbsp. flour
1 tbsp. cinnamon

Glaze:
2 cups of powdered sugar
5 tbsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix all the ingredients for the batter (except the butter) together in a bowl. Once combined, carefully pour in the melted butter. Pour the batter into a greased 9”x 13” pan, any smaller and it will overflow while baking. Evenly distribute the apples over the top of the batter. In a separate bowl combine brown sugar, flour and cinnamon and cut butter with fork or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Then take a knife and drag it in a swirly motion all over the pan allowing the topping to make friends with the apples and sugar crumbs.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes;. reduce heat to 325 degrees and continue to bake at least 30 minutes.  Depending on how many apples you put in and how juicy they were you may need to increase your time. If the top is getting too brown you can a tent it with foil and continue baking.
Once baked let sit for 20 minutes and then pour the glaze all over the cake.
