Apple desserts are the best. They can be served for breakfast or dessert. You can brighten them up by adding chopped fruit, or keep it plain and luxurious by adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Either way you serve it, apple desserts can be really handy. If you have houseguests over a lot, it is a pretty safe bet to make something with apples since most people do enjoy them. My favorite way to prepare them is apple crisp, but that takes a lot of work on the spot that I want to be enjoying with my guests.
Recently, my neighbor Anne rushed over with a new cake she had made. It was an apple upside down cake. She had taken her cue from a recent pineapple upside down cake and made many upside down cakes using different fruit.
Banana upside down cake was not a real hit, but apple upside down cake was apparently the best she had ever tried. After taking a bite, I knew it was a keeper. It was light and fluffy, but still sinfully delicious with a bit scoop of ice cream. This is the perfect dessert to prepare ahead of time before your guests arrive.
