    I made this the first time it aired on tv. It is SOSOSO yummy we haven't ever forgotten it. I was craving it today and couldn't find my old recipe. Thankfully you still have it here. Serve it hot and be ready to eat the whole skillet.

    I made lots of changes to this recipe.

    -I didn't want a tarte tartine type cake so I actually cooked the apples in the caramely syrup and mixed it in the batter - it's nice to have chunks of apples throughout.

    -I cut down both the butter and sugar. I only used 2 TB of butter and 4 TB of sugar to make the caramel sauce. I kept the 1 stick of butter in the batter, but just 1/2 cup of sugar. This makes for a good cake that's good for breakfast too.

    -The batter as it came together was way too dry with the amount of flour. I added about 1/2 cup buttermilk to make what looked like a standard batter, and pouring in the cooked apples had some juice/caramel that moistened the batter as well.

    The result was very good but no longer the same cake I suppose!

    if you are looking for a good but not great apple dessert this would be it. Takes too long to prepare for just an average dessert.

    A comfort food cake that is perfect in autumn with a cup of coffee. I added a good amount of pumpkin pie spice. Also, I highly suggest allowing the apple slices to caramelize in the sugar mixture first. If you are transferring it to a pan - an 8x8 is not nearly big enough. Needs a 9x13.

    This is the best cake I've ever eaten. I love it warm right out of the oven! It is pretty easy to make and comes out of the pan looking just like it did on Emeril Live.

    This is impressive looking and tasting. Don't let the sour cream part fool you. It's GREAT!
