- 1 1/2 tsp (3 g) ground cinnamon

- 1/2 cup (100 g) white sugar
- 1/2 cup (120 g) heavy whipping cream

CINNAMON APPLE CAKE
- Wash and clean the apples. Slice them into quarters (keep the skin). Transfer them in batches directly into your Eco Chop. Give it a few pulls to chop it to your liking. Set aside.
- Chop the pecans using your Eco Chop as well. Set aside together with your chopped apples.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer with the paddle attachment on, cream the sugar and butter together for about 2 minutes (Medium-high speed) until light and fluffy. IMPORTANT: It needs to triple in size as this is what will make your cake rise.
- Beat the eggs one at a time for about 15 seconds each. Scrape down the sides of the bowl whenever needed.
- Incorporate the all-purpose flour, baking soda and sea salt. Fold the the chopped apples and pecans.
BAKE!
- Bake for 55 minutes at 350F/180C. (every oven heats differently, monitor your cake from 50min). It is ready when caramelized on top and the toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once your cake is out of the oven, let it cool down for about 10-15min. Then, unmold, serve with the salted caramel and enjoy. Bon appétit!
SALTED CARAMEL SAUCE
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter on low heat. When it is almost melted, add at once, both sugars, the heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract and salt. Carefully bring it to a boil. Continue stirring until the caramel thickens about 8-10min. Then let it completely cool down. As the Caramel cools down it will thicken as well.
