Comforting Caramelized Apple Poundcake
I tried making this carefully without extra additives. As long as you beat the butter well, this cake is as good as done!
The best tasting poundcake is chilled in the refrigerator for a day, then brought to room temperature. The one day of rest helps the cake taste amazing! I think it's actually better than cake straight out of the oven (and straight of the fridge as well, of course) So please chill it and then bring it to room temperature.
If the butter won't return to room temperature fast enough, heat it over a hot water bath or quickly in the microwave. In either case, be absolutely sure not to let the butter melt.
If you place the eggs in warm water (not boiling hot water) they will come to room temperature.
If you leave the eggs out of the refrigerator for an hour, they'll come to room temperature. It might take longer in the winter. Recipe by Ayuna

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preliminaries: Line the poundcake tin with glassine paper. If the pan has a nonstick finish or is made of silicone, grease it with vegetable oil.
- 2
Preliminaries: Have the eggs and butter at room temperature. Sift the ◆ cake flour and almond flour together twice from a height to incorporate lots of air into them, even if it seems like a lot of work.
- 3
Make the caramelized apples and leave to cool. See- make sure to cook off all the excess moisture that comes out of the apples.

Put the room temperature butter in a bowl and mix until it's glossy like mayonnaise. If the butter is at room temperature it will reach the mayonnaise-like stage right away.
- 5
Add all the granulated sugar to the creamed butter at once. Beat with a handheld mixer until it's white and fluffy, about 10 minutes.
- 6
After 10 minutes of beating, it will seem like the butter has increased in volume.
- 7
Break an egg into a separate bowl and beat it very well before adding to the butter-sugar mixture. Use a handheld mixer for this again.
- 8
Add the 2nd egg in the same way. If you add 2 eggs at once the batter may split. Cold eggs may make the batter split too.
- 9
Add the caramelized apples and the ◆ sifted flours all at once. Mix by scooping up the batter from the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
- 10
Turn the bowl counter-clockwise while scooping up the batter clockwise with a rubber spatula from the bottom of the bowl to mix. The batter in this photo is not mixed enough yet.
- 11
Don't overmix the batter, but do mix it properly until it's glossy! When it's no longer floury and has turned shiny, stop mixing.
- 12
Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin. To prevent the apples from sinking to the bottom, don't do the usual air-elimination step of dropping the pan from a height onto your work surface.
- 13
Add some crushed walnuts, sliced almonds etc. to taste (optional).
- 14
Bake for 20 minutes in a preheated 180°C oven, then lower the heat to 170°C and cover with aluminium foil and bake for another 20 minutes.
- 15
While the cake is baking, make the syrup. Put the sugar and water in a small pan and mix. Bring to a boil, let cool and add the rum.
- 16
When the cake is baked and has cooled enough that you can touch the pan, brush the surface evenly with the syrup. You don't have to use up all the syrup.
- 17
After cooling the cake for a while, wrap it up in foil and rest in the refrigerator for a day. The cake can fall apart easily right down the middle, so handle it gently.
- 18
The butter in the cake doesn't taste good unless it's chilled and hardened, so wait a day.
- 19
When the cake is just out of the refrigerator it's hard and firm, so leave it at room temperature for a while before eating. It will be silky and moist.

Apples and nuts go so well together. I like to add lots of walnuts personally.
- 21
Here I added caramelized bananas instead of apples to make a caramelized banana poundcake. I topped it with chocolate chips.

Caramelized Apple Cake Caramelized Apple Cake
I made this because I got a lot of apples.When making the batter, be sure to add the sugar and the egg in parts, not all at once. Also, if the egg is still cold, Step 9 will become difficult, so be sure to bring it to room temperature.The ratio of sugar to apples for the caramelized apples is 10 g of sugar per 50 g of apples.

Caramelized Apple Upside Down Cake Caramelized Apple Upside Down Cake
This is a cake I came up with after getting a request from a former high school classmate for a Christmas cake. Her husband wanted something else, and she wanted an apple cake, so following the rules of society I went with her wishes. But the caramel flavor was requested by her husband.When you put the apples in the caramel, it cools down rapidly and hardens, but as the apple is simmered it melts, so it's not a problem. By microwaving the apples first, when simmering them with the caramel, they will cook faster. Boiling and making the apples soft will make it easier to layer them as shown in the photos.

Caramel Apple Cake Caramel Apple Cake
Making the same apple cake over and over is boring, so I came up with this new version.For those who don't want their cut apples to discolour, squirt some lemon juice . In Step 2 when making the caramel, lining the frying pan makes it far easier to clean at the end! Keep an eye on the caramel right until it changes colour. Once it's a brown tea colour, take it off the heat. Recipe by mimiko10 -

Caramel Apple Tart Caramel Apple Tart
When I used a recipe that bakes the crust and almond cream/filling at the same time, the crust and almond cream turned out undercooked, so I came up with a recipe where the crust is baked "blind" in advance.Don't cut the apples too thinly. The petal shape will be three dimensional and look nicer if the apples have a certain thickness.The sauteed apples will shrink considerably once they are cooled. Please be careful not to overcook them in step 13. Recipe by mocchi4141 -

Easy Apple Cake Easy Apple Cake
I thought maybe since there are so many apples in this cake, it is low in calories and so it often has been featured as a snack at my house. This recipe uses a relatively modest amount of sugar, so don't reduce it further.Adding just the cinnamon is tasty, but I like to bake this cake with cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg and ginger. In this case cinnamon should be the main spice and a single sprinkle of the other spices is enough.Serving with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream makes this cake even more delicious! For 18 x 18 cm [7.1 x 7.1 in] cake. Recipe by spitze -

Carameled Asian Pear and Cream Cheese Pound Cake Carameled Asian Pear and Cream Cheese Pound Cake
I received a lot of pears, so I thought they might make a delicious dessert! Asian pears have a high water content, so simmering them in caramel prevents the cake from becoming soggy!If you don't have a bundt cake pan, use a pound cake pan or a muffin pan.Since Asian pears have high water content, after adding them to the caramel, cook for about 3 minutes to let the water evaporate. (Even if the caramel gets a little runny, you're going to mix it into the cake batter, so don't worry.) Recipe by yaburie -

It's a family favorite that I've been making since high school.Keep whipping the eggs until pale and thick.The batter is light enough to rise even without baking powder.You can use vegetable oil instead of olive oil, but it tastes better with olive oil.Sprinkle some cinnamon powder on the apples if you prefer.
