Moist Caramel And Apple Loaf Food

CARAMEL APPLE BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• In a large bowl mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and sugar.
• In a medium bowl whisk the egg, then add oil, vanilla extract and yogurt until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Fold in the chopped apple. Pour the batter into prepared loaf pan.
• Bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. If the top is getting too brown while baking, cover pan loosely with aluminum foil. Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
• To make the glaze: In a medium saucepan, mix together sugar, heavy cream, and butter and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for 1-2 minutes, whisking occasionally. Remove saucepan from the heat, and let cool slightly. Add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar and whisk until smooth and combined. Mixture should be thick, if it's still liquid, add another tablespoon until thick but pourable. Spread caramel mixture evenly over the bread.
• Bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or in refrigerator for 5 days. Serve at room temperature.

MOIST CARAMEL AND APPLE LOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 170 C, Gas 3, 325 F. Grease and line your baking tin. See here for how to line.
• Get all your ingredients ready, i.e sieve the flour, and add the salt and baking powder to the flour together with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg. Peel and core the apples and slice so they are about 1/4 inch thick, then place in a bowl and add the remaining cinnamon and nutmeg, together with a squeeze of lemon juice. Give the slices a toss so they are all coated evenly.
• Start with making the cake batter by creaming the butter and sugar until a pale light colour. Add the dulce de leche and combine.
• Slowly add the beaten eggs to the mixer, on a low speed setting, a bit at a time. If the mixture starts to curdle or split, add a spoonful of your sieved flour, keep on adding the eggs, and a bit of flour if necessary, until all the eggs are added.
• Add half the milk with half of the flour, keeping the mixer on a slow speed. Once combined, add the remaining milk and gently fold in the remaining flour until combined.
• Transfer HALF the cake mixture to the greased and lined loaf tin then arrange half the apple slices along the pan. Add the remaining cake mixture, and finally arrange the remaining apple slices along the top. The slices will sink under the surface during baking so don't worry!
• Place in the oven for 1 hr 20 minutes to 1 hr and 30 minutes.
• *** Please do test if the cake is done by using a skewer and poke it in the middle to see that it comes out clean. Every oven is different and cook times may vary a little. If your cake needs a little longer, you can cover the top with some foil if you think it is getting too brown. Depending of which apples you use, they all contain varying amounts of water which can cause the bake time to be slightly different for everyone, so do check for doneness!
• Have a cup of tea!
• When the cake is done, take it out of the oven and leave in the cake tin until cool enough to transfer to a cooling rack. It is also nice to drizzle some of the dulce de leche over the top!
• Allow to cool. Store in an airtight container.

CARAMEL APPLE LOAF CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease a 2lb loaf tin and line the base and ends with a long strip of baking paper.
• Beat together the butter, sugar and vanilla until pale, then beat in the eggs, one by one. Tip in the flour, cinnamon and yogurt. Peel, core and chop apples into small chunks, then add to the bowl and mix everything together with a wooden spoon.
• Scrape into the tin, smooth the top and scatter the walnuts down the middle. Bake on a middle shelf for 1 hr 20-30 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean. Cool in the tin.
• To decorate, put the toffees in a small saucepan with the double cream. Gently heat, stirring, until toffees have melted into a smooth caramel sauce. Cool for about 1 min while you gently turn out the cake. Slowly drizzle the toffee sauce over the top of the cake. Scatter immediately with the extra walnuts - they should stick where they hit toffee. Leave for 10 mins before serving. Best fresh but will keep in an airtight tin for 3-4 days.
