Nothing could be better than a fresh apple cake. My mom gave me this recipe, and I think it has been for many, many years in her house. I enjoy this Apple Cake with a coffee, just appreciating nature and think of the future. I hope you’ll try this recipe and make your version, and don’t forget to treat your family and friends.

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp ground cinnamon

½ tsp salt

1 cup white sugar

(1) egg

¼ cup of vegetable oil

2 cups peeled and chopped apple

½ cup chopped walnuts

½ cup raisins

Directions:

Preheat the oven about 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).

In a bowl, sift flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Mix sugar, egg, and oil in another bowl. Stir in the flour mixture just until combined; fold in apple, walnuts, and raisins.

In the preheated oven, bake until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about an hour.

Notes:

Instead of raisins, you can use dates and any sort of chopped nut you want.

The trick to a great apple cake is to use a variety of apples for a combination of flavors and textures: sweet, sour, crisp, and gentle. To get the best bang for your apple cake dollar, try combining Honeycrisp and Granny Smith if you prefer a more tart cake, or go with Gala or Fuji for a sweeter experience.

Apple Cake remains fresh for 12 months and can be thaw and serve at room temperature.
