As we come to the end of apple month some people are all appled-out! This apple cake calls for fresh apples, and is a nice change of pace for those of us who try to eat seasonal produce. When you try to eat seasonally it is easy to get tired of eating the same fruits and veggies in the same ways...yummy recipes come at a premium! This delightful, yet EASY recipe was given to me by my mother. It one of my favorite fall desserts and due to its simplicity, it is easy to let your wee ones do most of the "work." (If you are a teacher and your school has an oven, this is an easy dish to make with your students.)
Enjoy!
Fresh Apple Cake
Ingredients ~ 1 cup oil, 2 cups sugar, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 2 cups flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 cups firmly packed grated apples, and 1 cup chopped walnuts
Directions ~ Grease then lightly flour 9"x13" casserole dish. Mix oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Add flour, baking soda and salt. Stir. Add apples and walnuts. Stir. Pour into baking dish. Bake at 350 F for about 40 minutes. Can be served warm or cool...is great with a glass of milk, apple cider, apple juice or hot chocolate!
*My blog has "sugar" and "spice" in its name for a reason... Prior to baking this cake I usually sprinkle cinnamon, a little nutmeg, and brown sugar over the top, not only because it makes the cake extra yummy, but also because I add those three ingredients to just about every recipe I can! : p
Happy Apple Caking!!!
