Directions Martina McBride's Fresh Apple Cake with Homemade Caramel Sauce
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
For the cake, beat the Country Crock® Spread with a mixer at medium speed until fluffy, gradually add the sugar, beating well. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition. Add apple, beating just until blended.
Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and cloves, add to the Country Crock® mixture and mix just until blended. Stir in the walnuts if desired.
Pour into a lightly greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or just until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack 10 minutes. Serve with caramel sauce and if desired, whipped cream or ice cream.
For the caramel sauce, cook the sugar, half-and-half, Country Crock® Spread, and salt in a small saucepan over medium-low for 5 to 7 minutes, whisking slowly until thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool before serving. (Makes 1 cup)
