This is the best Apple and Pineapple Cake Tart around ! Perfect Fall, Thanksgiving dessert and so easy to make too

Post and images updated November 2018

I made this Apple and Pineapple Cake Tart for tonight’s dessert and even after years it is still a favorite with my family.

Apple and Pineapple on (or in!) a cake layer with a cream sauce poured over the hot dessert just has to be a winner ! This is not a cake and not a tart, the dessert is BOTH in one.

The Apple and Pineapple Cake Tart was also another first for me. Meaning baking my own.

I love Apple tarts and pies, usually a little warm with ordinary cream, whipped or with ice-cream. But before I had this recipe, my Apple treats were always sore-bought.

Being totally honest, this is so much better.

Prick with a fork and pour over the sauce

Drenched in sauce and back into the oven for a few minutes

The more I get into baking my own goodies, the less I want to pay a fortune for, well .. second or third rate goods from stores. Homemade is really much tastier, no denying that.

The cake kind of pushes up and over to the inside at the sides, but the cake layer was still at the bottom as well. I won’t say this is a pretty dessert – but who cares, it is delicious!

And not your ordinary Apple tart or pie either ! Maybe this might even fall into a baked pudding category.
