Upside-Down Apple Cinnamon Honey Cake
- 1-1/2 cup Diced Gala Apples (for 1 1/2 Cups You'll Need About 1-1/2 Good Sized Apples)
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon, Divided
- 7 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Divided
- 1 cup Dark Brown Sugar
- 1-1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/8 teaspoons Fresh Nutmeg
- 2 whole Eggs
- 1/2 teaspoons Real Vanilla Extract
- 2/3 cups Whole Milk
- 6 teaspoons Honey
- Line and spray (I like to use my Misto) a 9-inch round cake pan. Set the pan aside. Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a medium-sized bowl toss the diced apples with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and place them in the bottom of your prepared pan.
- In the same bowl that you just used, add 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter and brown sugar. Mix until crumbly, about one minute. Set aside.
- In a small bowl combine the flour, remaining cinnamon and baking powder. Grate in 1/8 teaspoon of fresh nutmeg, stir and set aside.
- Into the brown sugar mixture, beat in the eggs (one at a time). Then, with the mixer on low, blend in the vanilla and whole milk.
- Add in the dry ingredients and mix by hand until combined thoroughly, then pour this mixture over the apples and spread evenly.
- Bake in preheated 350 F oven for 25-30 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before inverting onto a cake plate.
- Meanwhile into a small bowl add the 6 teaspoons of honey and the remaining tablespoon of butter. Zap it in the microwave for 20 seconds until melted and then drizzle it all over the top of the cake.
- Cut into eighths and serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
- Serve with hot cider, coffee or tea!
