Apple Spice Crumb Cake

Apple and cinnamon are always two flavors that mix well together, so why not put them in a cake? :)

Ingredients

• 2 cups of all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp of baking powder 
• 1/4 tsp of apple pie spice
• 1stick of butter, softened
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract 
• 1 1/2 cups of milk 
• 1 (21) oz can of apple pie filling

Cinnamon Crumb Topping

• 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
• 2 Tbsp of sugar
• 2 Tbsp of olive oil
• 1 tsp of ground cinnamon 

Directions

Preheat oven to 350° degrees.

Grease and lightly flour an 8" x 8" square baking pan and set aside. (I lined the bottom of my pan with a sheet of parchment paper, for easy removal after baking.)

In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and apple pie spice, then set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the softened butter and sugar using a hand blender. Mix until the mixture is creamy.

Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix together to well blended.

Stir in the milk and then add the flour mixture and combine all ingredients until well blended and the mixture is smooth and creamy. 

To make the cinnamon crumb topping: Combine the flour, sugar, olive oil, and cinnamon into a small bowl and stir just until all ingredients are blended. The mixture should be of a smooth crumbly consistency.

Add the cake batter to the prepared pan and then top the cake batter with the apple pie filling as shown.

Top the apples with the cinnamon crumb topping.

Add the cake to the oven and bake for one hour and one hour and fifteen minutes. You will know the cake it down when it is a golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake, comes out clean.

Cool and Enjoy! Makes 9 - 12 servings.

Note: Refrigerate any unused portion.
