Directions:
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Steel Blade: Process
flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and ginger for 10 seconds, until
blended. Transfer to large mixing bowl. Process apples until finely minced,
8 to 10 seconds. Measure 1 cup firmly packed and set aside.
Process eggs and egg
whites, sugar, oil and honey for 2 to 3 minutes, until light. Do not insert
pusher in feed tube. Add dry ingredients to batter alternately with tea and
brandy. Process with quick on/off pulses, just until blended. Do not
over-process. Add apples and process with quick on/off pulses, just until
mixed.
Pour batter into sprayed 12-cup fluted tube pan (Bundt pan). Bake for 1 hour
and 10 minutes, until cake tests done. A wooden skewer inserted into the
center should come out dry. If necessary, cover top of cake with foil to
prevent over-browning. Let cake cool in pan for 20 minutes. Carefully loosen
with a flexible spatula; invert cake onto a serving plate.
Yield:
15 servings. Freezes well.
Note:
If you don't have a large processor, add beaten egg mixture to dry
ingredients in mixing bowl alternately with tea and brandy. Mix with a
wooden spoon until blended, about 45 seconds. Stir in apples.
Additional
Comments: If you don't have brandy on hand, you can substitute
Grand Marnier, orange juice or peach brandy. Apple juice can replace half of
the tea for a delicious taste.
