Apple Cake

Many years ago, a older lady named Virginia Spreen gave me this wonderful recipe. It is i of those dandy one-time recipes that turns out perfect every fourth dimension too fifty-fifty improves on twenty-four hr menses 2 too three. No electrical mixer is used amongst this cake, but a sturdy spoon. It's downwards abode flavour too texture reminds me of i of grandma's delicious cakes!!

4 cups peeled too diced Rome apples
1½ cups white sugar
1 loving cup chopped walnuts or pecans
.
Mix the higher upwards ingredients together too let stand upwards at room temperature for an hr to extract about of the juice from the apples (juice goes into the recipe later)This is an of import step, don't exit it out..

In large mixing bowl, combine (and laid aside)

3 cups all exercise flour
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
.
Add the next to the chopped apple-sugar mixture too mix well
,
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 loving cup vegetable oil
2 beaten eggs
.
Combine the dry out ingredients to the apple tree mixture (extracted juice from apples too all) too mix amongst a large spoon (do non exercise electrical mixer).
.
Pour into a greased and floured bundt cake pan or an angel nutrient pan. Bake at 350F for 1 hr too 10-15 minutes. Make certain yous exercise the toothpick examination to run into if it is done after i hr too 10 minutes. Cool for five minutes hence plough the cake out of the pan. Wrap hot cake inward plastic wind to cool.

People enquire me why I wind my cakes inward plastic wind piece they are yet rattling hot. The elementary respond is that it non exclusively keeps the cake extremely moist, but it enhances the flavor. I'm non certain "why" it industrial plant hence well, but I exercise this method on EVERY cake I bake.

 NOTE: Grease too flour cake pan liberally. I exercise the vegetable spray that has flour already inward it, too that industrial plant fine.
.
NOTE: Store this cake covered, because the apples inward the cake volition maintain to brand this cake to a greater extent than moist (it is truly ameliorate on twenty-four hr menses 2 too three).

NOTE: Any apple tree volition operate amongst this recipe, but I uncovering that Rome apples gustatory modality the best (Granny Smiths operate too, but are a fiddling tart). Dice the apples inward a fiddling less than ½" squares (the size of die is non critical). Do non exercise nutrient processor...it cuts them likewise small.
