Nana’s Apple Cake Recipe

Nana's Apple Cake Recipe

Fall is synonymous with apples around here. We have two apple trees in our back yard and a local orchard about a mile away. This apple cake recipe from my Mother-in-law is probably my husband’s favorite way to eat some of those apples.  It’s moist, fluffy, and the cinnamon smell fills your whole kitchen with a big autumn hug. 

Nana makes her apple cake in a bunt pan. I used a 13×9 pan for mine and did not use quite as much of the apple mixture. (I only used 4 apples, instead of the 6 listed in the recipe.)

Nana's Apple Cake recipe

Apple Cake Recipe:

Slice 6 tart apples

2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 cup of sugar

Mix together and put into a ziplock bag, shake, and set aside.
 
1 cup of cooking oil
1/2 cup of orange juice
2 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
4 eggs
3 cups sifted flour
2 1/4 cups of sugar
3 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

Combine and mix well in a large mixing bowl

In a floured and greased bundt pan pour half the batter.  Add half the apple mixture. Pour remaining batter over apples, and top with the remaining apple mixture.

Bake at 350 for  1 1/2 hours to 2 hours.  Check with a cake tester to make sure the cake is done.  

Place aluminum foil around the sides of the pan to prevent burning.
 
Helpful hint: I like to use one of these apple peelers to make the process faster when I make this cake or other apple recipes. It peels, cores, and slices the apples at the same time. (Click to visit my Amazon affiliate link.)
