How to create a caramel apple sheet cake recipe
Below are detailed instructions along with step-by-step images to guide you through this recipe. The complete list of ingredients is provided further down.
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9×13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray and line it with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Set this mixture aside.
Step 3: In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, grated apple, and vanilla extract.
Step 4: Incorporate the flour mixture and stir until just blended.
Step 5: Transfer the batter to the lined baking dish.
Step 6: Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 7: Allow the cake to cool completely before icing. Icing applied to a warm cake may melt into it.
Step 8: For the icing, combine milk and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds, or until the butter has melted.
Step 9: Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and caramel to the bowl. Whisk until fully combined.
Step 10: Drizzle the icing over the cooled cake, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Allow the icing to set before slicing and serving.
