Whipped Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting

all-purpose flour

milk

vanilla extract

salted butter (at cool room temperature)

sugar

salt

cinnamon

In a small saucepan, whisk flour into milk and heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens. It will be the consistency of a thick pancake batter. It should not look wet at this point.

Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Stir in vanilla.

While the mixture is cooling, cream the butter, sugar, and salt together until light and fluffy on medium high, about 5 minutes.

Then add the completely cooled milk mixture along with the cinnamon.

Beat it for about 5 minutes on medium-high to high until it looks like whipped cream. It may look separated at first, so keep beating it until it comes together and looks like a whipped cream.

Apple Spice Cake is made with both applesauce and diced apple chunks. Top it off with a spiced buttercream frosting for one of the most delicious cakes ever. Great for the holidays or anytime of year!

Apple Spice Cake with Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting

all purpose flour ((270 grams))

brown sugar

baking powder

baking soda

nutmeg

eggs

vegetable or canola oil

applesauce

vanilla

apple,

butter, softened

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two 9-inch cake pans with cooking spray and line bottoms with parchment rounds. Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, until well combined. Add in the eggs, vegetable oil, applesauce, and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Fold in the diced apples using a spatula until evenly combined.

Pour even amounts of the batter into the prepared cake pans (it&#39;s helpful to use a kitchen scale for accuracy if you have one). Bake in the middle rack of oven for 35-40 minutes until a deep golden brown color. You will know the cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

Cool on a wire cooling rack; remove the cakes from their pans after about 15 minutes of cooling, peeling off the parchment and then let cool completely, about an hour.

While the cake cools, make the frosting. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter using an electric mixer. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, two tablespoons of milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Continue mixing until desired consistency is reached, adding an additional tablespoon of milk if needed.

To frost the cake, place one of the cooled cake rounds on a pedestal or serving plate. Add about ⅓ of the buttercream on top and spread over cake layer. Carefully place on the second, top layer of cake. Scoop the remaining frosting on the top of the cake and use a spatula to spread out the frosting over the top and sides of the cake. To give the cake a more rustic look, while rotating the cake, use a flat edge bench scraper to scrape off the side frosting on the cake. Place any remaining frosting on the top of the cake and use a butterknife to create waves and swirls on top if desired.

Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting

This cake was outstanding! I sprinkled a little cinnamon on top to make it pretty and brought it to a party.  There was nothing left. I was a litle (okay, alot) indimidated when one of the guests at the party was the pastry chef at a very famous Bay Area restaurant and brought her desserts, but I didn't need to be.  The cake spoke for itself.  This will forever be in my rotation. I have never had just an okay recipe from you.
Thank you sooooo much!

This is a wonderful cake which will now be a Christmas tradition in our household!  I made my own applesauce which was so easy and better than store bought.

I made this recipe with vegan substitutes and it came out AMAZING! The edges were all caramelized goodness, the buttercream was simple and delicious and the cake held up really well with vegan egg replacement (flax seeds)! I definitely impressed my friends haha

I bake often and had never baked an apple cake before.  I decided this recipe fit the plan for mixing up a quick cake for a party.  The cake was absolutely delicious!  Every person said the same thing…moist, warm flavor and going on the list of favorite recipes.  I did not use nutmeg as I’m not a fan.  I added an additional 1/2 tsp of cinnamon instead.  For the icing I used my standard cream cheese icing which was perfect for the “ warmth” of the cake.  I will definitely bake this again!

Gave this a try for a weekend treat, and this recipe does not disappoint! Easy, flavorful and perfect for fall; my whole family loved it!

This apple spice cake looks amazing! I love all the chunks of apple in it. It's a perfect Fall cake.

This cake was so incredibly good! And the cinnamon frosting took it over the top. Thank you for the great recipe!

This is the perfect cake for any fall occasion. Love the chunks of apples in each bite!
