Caramel & Apples:
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons honey
1 lb. apples (2 to 3), peeled, sliced (1/4 inch)
Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup whole milk
Heat oven to 350°F.
Spray 9x2-inch round baking pan with cooking spray. Line bottom with parchment paper.
Heat brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter and honey in medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves, stirring frequently. Increase heat to medium-high; bring to a boil. Boil 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour into pan.
Arrange apple slices over caramel mixture in 2 overlapping concentric circles to cover bottom of pan, starting on outside edge.
Whisk flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in medium bowl. Beat 3/4 cup butter and sugar in large bowl at medium speed 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. At low speed, beat in flour mixture alternately with milk just until incorporated and smooth, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
Carefully spread batter over apple slices.
Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until cake is golden brown and pulls slightly away from sides and toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Cool in pan on wire rack 5 minutes. Invert onto wire rack; remove parchment.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
