Classic Apple Cake

This is a recipe that has been around for a long time. My Mother got the recipe from my Aunt Josie when I was just a kid. Love it and make it every year when the apples are local and fresh. I hope you’ll try it. Moist, not too sweet and very easy to make. You don’t even have to get out the mixer- ingredients are mixed by hand and ready in no time.

Classic Apple Cake

1 c. oil

4 eggs

1 t. vanilla

1/3 c. orange or lemon juice

Combine above ingredients and set aside.

Mix together the following dry ingredients. Make a well and stir in egg mixture to make a stiff batter

3 c. flour

2 c. sugar

3 t. baking powder

¼ t. salt

Mix ½ c. sugar and 2 t. cinnamon and set aside

Peel, core and slice 4 medium apples.

Grease a 9×13 inch pan or a Bundt pan. Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Place ½ of batter in prepared pan. Arrange apple slices on batter and sprinkle on ½ of the cinnamon mixture. Pour on remaining batter and sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture. Bake 1 hour in a 9×13 inch pan and about 1½ hours in a Bundt pan.
