Deep Dish Apple Cinnamon Skillet Cake with Maple Cashew Glaze

Deep Dish Apple Cinnamon Skillet Cake

with Maple Vanilla Glaze

Picture
How much do you associate the flavors of apple & cinnamon with fall?
For me, its a nearly impossible combination to avoid as the temperature drops and the leaves fall. Something about the warm, cozy smell of spicy cinnamon and nutmeg and crisp, sweet baked apples makes me swoon. I love everything about fall in Maine- the leaves changing and falling, tons of squash and pumpkin for dinner, and of course, apple picking in Baileys Orchard.
Apple pies and crumbles are great- just a littttle overdone. Google 'vegan apple pie' and girl, you will be waist deep in results from all over the world in seconds. I wanted something special, and in brainstorming apple blondies, apple crisp, and apple cheesecake crossed our minds. But I am so glad we made this, instead.
I love the simplicity of one pan baking -and using cast iron contributes to iron intake. (As vegans, we tend to run a  little anemic.) Plus, less dishes to wash at the end!
This cake is perfect for fall-themed parties and will definitely be making an appearance on our Thanksgiving table this year. 
We hope it'll be on yours, too!

Deep Dish Apple Cinnamon Skillet Cake Ingredients:
1 cup coconut oil or vegan butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar or sucanant
2 flax eggs* or egg replacers
1/2 cup nut milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups GF all-purpose flour
(or your favorite blend--we used 1 cup teff & 1 cup white rice flour)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp xantham gum
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
3 cups peeled and diced apples
(in my opinion, the crisp, tart ones are best)

*a single flax egg is made by combining 1 tbls ground flax with 3 tbls warm water 
and letting it gelatinize for about 5 minuntes

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Grease a large cast iron skillet and set aside. We used a deep dish, 9-inch cast iron skillet. This cake doesn't rise a ton, so alternately you can bake the batter in a regular 9-inch or larger skillet and it'll work just fine. Just be sure to adjust the cooking times so it isn't undercooked or overcooked- you can check the done-ness with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, you're good. Any batter on the stick means it needs a little longer.
In a mixing bowl beat together butter or softened coconut oil and sugars until fluffy. Add the “eggs” and whisk until completely combined. Add milk & vanilla; stir until a goopy batter starts to form.
In a separate, medium sized bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, xantham gum, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. 
Add dry to wet and combine. Add diced apples and mix well.

Pour batter into pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, until toothpick comes clean. Makes 1 large 9-inch skillet of cake- make as many servings out of that as you like.  Can be served from the skillet and kept on the counter, covered for up to 3 days or in the fridge, covered about 10 days.

Hi Amber, This recipe looks yummy and the photo is great too.

Every year, more than 10,000 of us go on a 40-day vegan fast for Lent. We're always looking for great vegan recipes. Some of our healthy habits and recipes carry over beyond our fast so we get a little healthier every year. This recipe is going in my vegan and non-vegan collections; I plan to make it this month.

Suggestion: Include the URL for each recipe on your PDF print copy. I keep my printed recipes in a binder and it would be good to know exactly where I got each recipe so that I can return to the site for more.

Love your blog. This is my first visit here. I'll be back!—Gwen
