In the fall there is an abundance of apples, but you don't have to settle for the standard apple pie or caramel apples. This Apple-Cranberry Upside-Down Cake from the Made In Oklahoma Coalition uses ingredients from Oklahoma and the flavors of autumn to spice up the everyday apple.
Yield: 24 (one-ounce) bites
Ingredients
One-half cup sugar
One-half teaspoon cinnamon
One-fourth teaspoon allspice
One-half cup Hiland or Braum’s butter
One-half cup sugar
One egg
One teaspoon vanilla
One-half cup Hiland or Braum’s sour cream
One and one-fourth cups Shawnee Mills flour
One and one-half teaspoons baking powder
One-fourth teaspoon salt
One-half cup Hiland or Braums’ milk
One Granny Smith apple, sliced
One cup fresh or frozen cranberries
Instructions
Grease an 8-inch round or square cake pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl, whisk ½ cup sugar, cinnamon and allspice. Sprinkle in pan.
With an electric mixer, combine butter and ½ cup sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, mixing until incorporated.
In a small bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Blend into butter mixture. On low speed, beat in milk until batter is smooth.
Place apple slices and cranberries in pan, arranging on top of the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Spoon batter over apple and cranberries. Bake for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick comes out clean.
Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Then, using pot holders, turn out cake onto a large plate or platter.
