German Apple Cake (Versunkener Apfelkuchen) is a traditional German cake that is so easy to make even if you aren’t totally kitchen confident! With a simple batter that rises up and bakes around the apples this easy coffee cake is the perfect everyday dessert that tastes best with a dollop of whipped cream on top. Sunken Apple Cake is one of the easiest cakes to make! With a simple batter that rises up and bakes around the apples this coffee cake is easy enough to make every day but also special enough for a holiday dinner.
OMG this is awesome good! It just doesn’t get any better than this! I kept all measurements and ingredients the same, only adding 1 tsp. of vanilla to the batter. It bakes to an almost cookie-like crunchiness on the top with a very moist and apple-y interior. I took it over the top by pouring over a caramel glaze: 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 c. brown sugar, and 1/4 c. cream. Bring to a boil, then boil 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Let cool just slightly before pouring over warm cake. Hubby says the “sauce” was what made this extraordinarily good, but this cake is so good, so delicious, a simple sprinkling of powdered sugar would be just fine too. I don’t EVER want to lose this recipe! Thanks so much for sharing it!

German Apple Cake
Ingredients:
Cake:
1 ½ cups flour
¾ cup sugar
½ cup butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
¾ cup milk
½ teaspoon vanilla
Apples (about 3-4, peeled and sliced)
1 cup butter
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar (white)
1 ½ tablespoons sugar
1 ½ tablespoons cinnamon
How to make it:
Preheat oven to 350.
Make the cake batter by mixing the butter, eggs, milk and vanilla. Add in the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, and baking powder), blend, and pour into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish (I use glass for this cake).
Place the sliced apples (Topping #1) on top of the batter. Slice more apples if needed to cover the cake.
In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for Topping #2 (butter, flour and sugar) and spread on top of the apples. This topping will be very crumbly.
In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for Topping # 3 (sugar and cinnamon). Sprinkle on top of the crumbly mixture.
Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. Cool before serving, though this cake is delicious when served warm (and with a heavy cream!)
