Apple Cake


September is the beginning of apple season and this apple cake is a great way to utilize some of that bounty! This recipe was given to me many years ago and it's definitely a keeper! It's moist, keeps well and is perfect for a snack or as a dessert.

2 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups oil
3 cups flour
3 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups peeled/diced cooking apples
1 cup walnuts

Mix sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla. Set aside 1/2 cup of the flour. Mix rest of flour with baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Add to sugar mixture; mix well. Combine apples & nuts with remaining 1/2 cup of flour & add to batter.

Pour into greased bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour & 20-30 minutes. This cake freezes well.
