1889 Cake Recipe Revamped Apple Upside Down Cake - Glen And Friends Cooking

1889 Cake Recipe Revamped Apple Upside Down Cake - Glen And Friends Cooking
Today Glen Cooks a pretty sturdy cake recipe from 1889 - and we drag it into the future with some caramel, spices, and apples. This makes a great caramel apple upside down cake.
Ingredients:
Caramel:
60 mL (¼ cup) butter
125 mL (½ cup) brown sugar
Pinch of salt
2 mL (½ tsp) cinnamon
2 apples-peeled, cored and cut into wedges
Cake:
2 eggs
250 mL (1 cup) sugar
250 mL (1 cup) sour cream
5 mL (1 tsp) pure vanilla extract
2 mL (½ tsp) baking soda
500 mL (2 cups) flour
7 mL (1 ½ tsp) ground cinnamon
2 mL (½ tsp) ground ginger
1 mL (¼ tsp) ground nutmeg
2 mL (½ tsp) salt
Method:
Preheat oven to 180ºC (350ºF), grease and line a 9” round cake pan.
Combine butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a pot over medium heat.
Melt together and bring just to a simmer, then pour into base of cake pan.
Arrange apple pieces in the caramel.
Whisk the eggs until light and fluffy, then whisk in the sugar.
Whisk in the sour cream and vanilla.
Combine together the dry ingredients, then slowly stir these into the egg mixture.
Transfer to the cake pan over the apples, smooth the top, and bake for 30-35 minutes.
(probably a good idea to put a sheet pan under the cake pan.

    I think that I'd keep basically everything else as-is, but I might add a splash of good bourbon or rum to the caramel sauce, and go with peach slices instead of apples. For some reason that's calling out to me as the way to play.

    #GlenAndFriendsCooking I think there's a mistake in your written recipe. You call for 2 cups/500ml of flour. 1 cup of flour is 120 gm (or ml), so 2 cups would be 240 gm/ml. Your metric amount is double what your per-cup amount calls for. I made the cake today and used the cup-weight measurement (240 gm flour) and the cake came out beautifully. Doubling the flour would have led to a completely un-stirable and un-pourable batter.

    The recipe is correct. You just don't understand Metric; all the Metric measurements in this recipe are by VOLUME (mL) there are no weight measurements given (g). You can't use a scale to make this recipe. *You can't weigh a mL because it's a volume measurement - UNLESS you are weighing distilled water at 4ºC, that is the only time 1g = 1mL = 1 Cubic Centimetre

    @@GlenAndFriendsCooking I have simply never before seen a baking recipe that used metric volume for flour; all metric measurements have been by weight in grams.
