Irish Kerry Cake

by on ‎03-09-2015 01:14 PM

This is a version of my Mom’s "Kerry Cake." Perfect for breakfast or coffee break!



1 tsp. cinnamon


1 ½ cups self rising flour 


 


¾ cup butter softened


¾ cup sugar


3 eggs


¼ cup whole milk


1 tsp. vanilla 


 


2 apples (we use Granny Smith) peeled and thinly sliced


2 Tbsp. sugar mixed with 2 Tbsp. cinnamon, OR 4 Tbsp. cinnamon sugar already mixed (in spice aisle)


 


In first bowl, add 1 tsp. cinnamon to the flour and mix well. Set aside.


In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy.  Add eggs, milk and vanilla and mix until combined.  Add the flour mixture to this and stir together until combined. 


In another bowl, toss sliced apples in with 2 Tbsp. of the cinnamon sugar mixture.  Grease bottom of an 8x11 baking pan (I am using the Belleek everyday Baker. Spread ½ the batter into the pan, layer the apples, and then top with the remaining batter. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar on top (sometimes I add a little more because I love cinnamon!)




Bake at 350 in preheated oven for about 45 minutes, serve warm with vanilla ice cream if desired!


Hmmm...looks like someone snitched a piece. No worries - the best part is the easy clean up! 



Enjoy!
