Ingredients
Cake Batter
Brown Butter Streusel
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 9×13-inch pan.
  2. Cook butter in medium saucepan over medium heat until melted. Once melted, stir often until butter begins to brown and smell nutty, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add in pecans, sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Cool and reserve.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and sugar together.
  4. Stir in melted butter, sour cream, milk, eggs, vanilla, and apples until smooth. Pour into prepared pan.
  5. Sprinkle crumbled bacon on top of batter, followed by streusel.
  6. Place pan in oven and bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Recipe Notes

Optional: Add an extra degree of difficulty (and flavor) by pouring out half the batter in the cake pan, then adding a layer of streusel before adding the final half of batter and another layer of streusel on top–as pictured.
