Ramekin Apple Cakes

Satisfy your cake craving! These buttery little cakes with sweet apple in every bite are perfect on their own or dress them up with a dusting of icing sugar, whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients:

 Apple Pie Filling:

3 medium apples, chopped

2 tbsps water

3 tbsps sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tbsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water

(or 1 cup canned pie filling but homemade is best!)

 

 Cake:

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 cup sugar

2 tsps baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1 cup milk

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla

 

If not using store bought pie filling, just add the apples, 2 tbsps water, sugar and cinnamon to a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer for about 15 minutes. Stir the cornstarch and 1 tbsp water together and add to the pan. Cook 2 minutes to thicken.

Butter 3 ramekins, or as in this case, 2 ramekins and an oven safe pudding bowl and set aside. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. Add the milk, melted butter and vanilla and stir until just combined. Spoon about 3 tablespoons of batter into each dish. Then divide the apple pie filling amongst each and add the remaining batter on top.

Bake in a 350°F oven for 30 minutes.

Eat warm right out of the ramekin or cool and turn out to slice like this one baked in the pudding bowl.
