A sumptuous vegan caramel apple upside-down cake, showcasing tender layers of spiced apple beneath a rich and luscious caramel. Prepare to be wooed by its captivating flavors and delightful aromas.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and peel, core, and slice 1 1/2 cups of apples. Set aside.
2
Using a small saucepan, melt the vegan butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, and salt together. Simmer until sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to bubble.
3
Pour the caramel mixture into the bottom of a 9x2-inch round cake pan, and arrange the apple slices in a pattern atop it.
4
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
5
In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and applesauce. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes until curdled.
6
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until combined, then add the diced apples and mix.
7
Carefully spoon the cake batter over the caramel and apple layer, ensuring the pattern remains undisturbed.
8
Bake for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
9
Cool the cake for 10 minutes, then carefully run a knife along the edges to release it from the pan.
10
Place a plate or cake stand on top of the cake pan, and swiftly flip it over. Gently wiggle and tap the pan until the cake releases onto the plate.
