Apple Pie Cake
Our tester called this “incredibly easy for something so good.” We loved the combination of apple-pie spices, apples, and pecans in the cake. This superb coffee cake makes a great dessert served warm with ice cream.

Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Thoroughly grease a 9-inch pie pan.
In a large saucepan, melt the margarine. Or melt the margarine by heating it in a large microwave-safe mixing bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds on high. Remove from the heat and blend in the sugar and egg. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and spices; add to the mixture and beat until smooth. Stir in the vanilla, apples, and pecans. Spread into the pie pan.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until a tester inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm, directly out of the pan.

Apple Pie Cake
Super yummy cake! Shared the cake with friends and it was a hit! I used salted butter and gala apples and followed the recipe as written.
Recipe question re. butter
Does it matter if one uses salted or unsalted butter in the recipe? If I use salted butter, do I delete the half teaspoon of salt that is mentioned in the directions? Thx.
recipe for apple cake
Hi, Carol. You can use either salted or unsalted butter. You do not have to omit the salt if you use salted butter. If it was a higher amount of salt we woud recommend that, but not here. Enjoy!
Love it!
Husband is on his 2nd helping, says its fantastic with or without ice cream! I have a deep dish pie plate, i think i could double the recipe.

This sounds like the recipe my Mom used to make. She called it " Fresh Apple Cake ". She cooked it in a Bundt or tube pan and it would develop a tasty crust on top. You could drizzle a topping on it, or not. It was delicious right out of the pan.
What kind of apples?
There are tons apple varieties. What kind of apple is used in this recipe. It's an important detail that is left out of the information.

I am a "depression baby". I remember my mother making this cake often while I was still at home. She called it "Cooked Cake"! And I remember her sending it to me when I was away at college. It is very moist and keeps well.She baked it in a loaf pan.
