This delicious apple pie cake is an absolute treat and the perfect combination of my three favorite things. Syrupy apple pie filling, moist vanilla cake batter, and buttery crumble topping.

Instructions
Apple filling – Peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces. Combine with the brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Set aside.
5 large Apples, ½ cup Brown sugar, 2 tbsp Flour, ½ tsp Cinnamon powder, ¼ tsp Nutmeg powder, ½ tsp Ground ginger
Crumble – Combine the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the cold butter and rub it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Refrigerate until needed.
¾ cup All purpose flour, 4 tbsp Chilled butter into cubes, 2 tbsp Sugar, ½ tsp Ground cinnamon
Oven and Pan – Preheat the oven to 325°F / 165°C / Gas Mark 3. Grease and flour an 8-inch tube pan.
Dry ingredients - In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
2 cups All purpose flour, 1½ tsp Baking powder, 1 tsp Baking soda, ½ tsp Salt, 1 tsp Ground ginger, 1 tsp Cinnamon powder, ½ tsp Nutmeg powder
Wet ingredients - Cream the softened butter, cream cheese, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the dry ingredients and buttermilk in alternating additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Add the vanilla and mix just until combined.
½ cup Unsalted butter , ½ cup Cream cheese, 1 cup Brown sugar, 3 Eggs , ½ cup Buttermilk, 1 tbsp Vanilla extract
Assemble – Spread half the cake batter into the prepared pan. Add half the apple filling, then the remaining cake batter and the remaining apples. Sprinkle the chilled crumble evenly over the top.
Bake – Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into several areas comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Cool – Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before carefully removing it. Keep the apple crumble side facing up and cool completely before serving.
