Apple upside down cake

Apple is one of my favourite fruit ^^, eating fresh, or using it in cooking or baking, there are so many ways to enjoy it.

Plus it becomes soft after cooking, the texture of the food that I LOVE! This time I use in for making delicious Apple upside down cake, but this one is dairy free version. As always I use Rice bran oil shortening and Rice bran oil for the fat part in this cake (you can use other kinds of oil and shortening too). Because shortening is 100% fat, when the butter is only 80% fat, you can't substitute the butter with the shortening or vice versa in some recipe and get the same result. And this recipe is the example, if you want to use butter, you will need 140-150 g of it not 130g or the cake will be drier. 
To get the base of the cake level, you have to turn the cake upside down before letting the cake cool, with this method the cake will be more beautiful.
