Moist & tender, this apple cake is very good. A perfect dessert for any day during the week of Passover
My sister Edith makes this cake every year & I got the recipe from her. i do not know where she got it from, a friend maybe so I can not give credit to the author of the recipe…. sorry
.I have not made this cake before but I think I will remember to make it again for sure. It is easy to make & I bet it is foolproof! Not like a sponge cake :)) ( my sponge cake fell this year so not sure how I am going to serve it but I will not blog it!!)
The original recipe is for an 8×8 pan. I doubled it & baked it in a springform pan so that I would have a bigger dessert to serve for guests. If i was going tp make it for Murray & I, I will make a smaller one
Here is the recipe.
Ingredients. ( the amount of ingredients listed is for a springtime pan)
Cake
6 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cups oil
1 1/2 cups cake meal
5 apples, peeled & sliced
Topping Note: I did not increase the amount of topping for the bigger recipe
1/3 cup chipped walnuts
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
Method
Preheat oven to 350f
Grease a springform pan
- Beat the eggs with the sugar & oil until the mixture is nice & light
- Add the cake meal & mix well
- Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared springform pan
- Now put 1/2 of the sliced apples evenly on the batter. keep them as flat as you can
- Pour the remaining batter on top of the apples
- Put the balance of the sliced apples evenly on top of the last layer of batter. Set aside
- Make the topping: Mix the chopped nuts, sugar & cinnamon together
- Sprinkle the topping evenly all over the apples
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours
- Let cool on a cooking rack. Run a knife along the edge of the pan to remove the collar of the pan…
Enjoy!
