Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 3 large apples, peeled and thinly sliced; 1 tablespoon lemon juice; 1 cup all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg; 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves; 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened; 3/4 cup granulated sugar; 2 large eggs; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/2 cup milk; 1/2 cup unsalted butter (for sauce); 1/2 cup brown sugar; 1/4 cup heavy cream; 2 tablespoons rum; Pinch of salt (for sauce)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and set aside.
In a bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves until well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Spread half of the batter into the prepared cake pan. Arrange half of the sliced apples on top of the batter. Add the remaining batter over the apples and top with the remaining apple slices.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the Rum Butter Sauce. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, heavy cream, rum, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Drizzle the warm Rum Butter Sauce over the cake before serving.
