Spiced Apple Upside Down Cake is one of my favorite cakes to make as summer begins to melt into fall. It’s sort of a special tribute to all of the great things that fall has in store for us – apples, cinnamon, buttery caramel, and that cozy feeling I always long for this time of year. I first made my Spiced Apple Upside Down Cake a few years ago. We had last minute company that dropped in after supper one afternoon and I didn’t have anything to serve them. As my husband spent time with them on the porch, I ran into the kitchen and threw together what I had for a Pineapple Upside-Down Cake and then realized I didn’t have pineapples or cherries! What I did have on hand were a couple of Granny Smith apples staring at me from the bowl on the counter.
Replacing the pineapple with the apples and adding a bit of cinnamon, I knew I was onto something delicious! I headed back out onto the porch and we chatted about everything and nothing that I even remember until the Spiced Apple Upside Down Cake was ready. With fresh coffee, warm spiced apple cake and a dollop of whipped cream, my emergency, throw together, what am I gonna make cake, turned out better than I could have ever hoped. It’s now a favorite cake in the fall and couldn’t be easier to make. It sure would be delicious for dessert after supper tonight, don’t ya think?
