Seared pound cake with apples
Store-bought pound cake made unbelievably delicious—seared in a little butter and topped with fresh fruit. Try serving it with salted caramel or vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
- 1 Granny Smith apple, cut into 1-inch dice
- 1 red delicious apple, cut into 1-inch dice
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 2 tsp finely grated lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about ½ lemon)
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 plain pound cake, cut into 1-to 1½-inch-thick slices
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, divided
- Powdered sugar, for serving
- Ice cream or whipped cream, for serving
Method
- In a bowl, toss the apples with the salt, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and cinnamon and set aside.
- Turn on the Everything Maker and let it preheat until the green Ready light turns on, about 3 minutes.
- Open the lid and add about ½ Tbsp butter to the cooking plate. As it melts, spread it with a rubber spatula to grease the entire cooking plate.
- Carefully add half the pound cake slices to the cooking plate. Cook with the lid open until the cake is golden brown on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the pound cake to a tray.
- Grease the cooking plate with the remaining butter and repeat steps 4 through 6 until all the pound cake is seared.
- Lightly cover the cake with foil to keep warm while you bake the apples.
- Add the apples to the cooking plate and spread in an even layer. Close the lid and let the apples cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove the apples from the cooking plate.
- Serve the cake warm topped with the apples, powdered sugar, and ice cream or whipped cream.
