List of Ingredients
Apple Pie Coffee Cake from David
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice or nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups peeled, cored, and thinly sliced firm tart apples (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon turbinado (raw) sugar, for sprinkling on top
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (350 degrees if using a Pyrex or
dark-finish pie plate). Grease a 10-inch pie plate.
In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, oil, vanilla, and sugar, beating
with a wooden spoon until thick, about 1 minute. Add the flour,
baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg, and salt. Beat
vigorously until the batter has a crumbly consistency, about 1
minute. Fold in the apples and mix until the apples are evenly coated
and the batter becomes moist and smooth. There will be lots of
apples, held together by a relatively stiff batter.
Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer
with a metal spatula. Sprinkle the top evenly with the sugar. Bake on
the center rakc of the oven 30 to 35 minutes, until the center is
firm when gently pressed. A cake tester inserted into the center
should come out clean, the top and bottom of the cake should be deep
brown, and the apples should be tender when pierced with a knife.
Remove from the oven and cool at least 1 hour in the pan on a folded
tea towel. Serve warm or room temperature, cut in wedges from the pie
pan.
