Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp powdered ginger
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp allspice
  • 1 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 2 1/2 sticks (1 1/4 cups) unsalted butter, cold and cut in pieces
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup apple butter
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Instruction

  • Set oven to 350F
  • Lightly spray a 9x13 baking pan.
  • Put all the dry ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitting with the blade attachment. Pulse to combine everything thoroughly.
  • Pulse in the butter until it is well distributed and the mixture is crumbly, 30-40 pulses.
  • Pour the dry mixture into a large mixing bowl. REMOVE one cup of the mixture and set it aside.
  • Whisk together the eggs, apple butter, molasses, and sour cream until smooth.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry, folding just until everything is thoroughly mixed. Don't over mix.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the reserved crumbs evenly over the top. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out without wet batter clinging to it. The baking time will vary depending on your pan and your oven.
  • Let cool slightly before cutting.
