I really should be doing a million other things now instead I'm sharing my favorite apple cake recipe that I got off a friends recipe blog. Which by the way has many wonderful recipe on it.
See those big chunks of apples and it only uses 1/2 cup of oil in the whole recipe.
Moist and so yummy. For a special twist drizzle a bit of caramel on it. I've made it twice this month already.
Now for the recipe from...
Apple Cake
This cake is one of my favorites for Fall. The sweet chunks of apples tucked into the moist cake, topped with a crispy cinnamon crust... perfect. Serve with chilled, lightly sweetened whipped cream, if you wish, but it isn't a requirement.
