Apple Walnut Cake

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a 9″ cake pan. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Set aside.

In the large bowl of a stand mixer, cream together 5 tablespoons of softened butter, granulated sugar, eggs, milk and vanilla. Add the flour mixture one heaping tablespoon at a time and continue mixing until it is completely incorporated.

Remove bowl from mixing stand and fold in apples and walnuts. Set aside.

Pour ¼ cup melted butter into the bottom of the cake pan. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the melted butter.

Pour apple walnut batter mixture into pan, smooth the top and bake for one hour. If it starts to get too brown at the end, tent it with a sheet of tin foil.

When done remove it from the oven and let cake stand in the pan for five minutes. Then invert onto a plate and allow to cool to room temperature before serving.
