It's been years since I made my last apple cake. It's one of my husband's favorites, even if he doesn't remember that fact.
Years ago, one of our most veteran teachers Mavis Dacus would bring her apple cake to school. It was one of the best cakes I'd ever eaten and remember it well to this day. Being the organized person that I am....I've had the recipe in my hands twice...lost it... and now had to resort with trying my best to recreate it. I will be asking for the recipe again from her sweet granddaughter Dee...hint...hint.
This past weekend I bought a jumbo bag of tart, green apples from my local Sam's Club so that making an apple cake would definitely happen.
As I made this cake, I'd forgotten how hard it is to mix the dough together once you add the apples in. It's for sure a muscle building exercise making this delicious cake, but so worth it. Just make sure you mix the ingredients at the end together with a large, sturdy spoon or you might break your mixer.
The cinnamon can also be optional if you have allergies to it, but I think it makes the cake even better.
As the leaves begin to fall and apples are being harvested, this is the perfect cake to make for home, work, church or just because you know your husband loves it. Right Scott?! (He really did love it!) And thankfully so did our second grade teachers today at school.
Hugs!
Sometimes it takes a little muscle to get the cake in the oven!
