Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10-inch Bundt pan. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, allspice, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
- In a large bowl, mix the vegetable oil, 2 cups of sugar, eggs, apples, 1 cup of pecans, and raisins. Mix the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, and pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with moist crumbs, about 70 minutes. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to finish cooling.
- For glaze, mix 1/2 cup of white sugar, the brown sugar, half and half, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and boil, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a syrup, 5 to 10 minutes. A candy thermometer will read 220 degrees F (105 degrees C). At that point, stir in butter, 1 cup of pecans, and vanilla extract. Continue to cook and stir until the syrup reaches 234 degrees F (110 degrees C). Allow the glaze to cool for 5 minutes, then spread the warm glaze over the cake.

PRALINE APPLE CAKE
An extra-special apple cake; maybe the best I've ever had. Rich, though. I got it out of a fundraising cookbook put out by a Toronto school. I don't think I fiddled with it much; maybe I upped the apple content in my never-ending quest for truely apple-y apple cake. I haven't seen another apple cake with the praline topping.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F Line the bottom of a 9" springform pan with parchment, and butter the pan.
- Cream the sugar and beat in the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into the butter and sugar.
- Beat them in to form a smooth batter.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared springform pan.
- Wet your hands and pat it evenly into the pan.
- Mix the cinnamon and sugar.

- At first they will seem to be sticking very far out of the batter, but the apples will make the level rise as you go.

- Bake the cake for 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cream the remaining butter and sugar, and beat in the remaining egg.

Tips:
- Use a combination of all-purpose flour and almond flour for a moist and flavorful cake.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy for a smooth and creamy batter.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to prevent curdling.
- Fold in the dry ingredients gradually to avoid overmixing the batter.
- Grate the apples on the large holes of a box grater for a fine, even texture.
- Top the cake with a praline glaze made with brown sugar, butter, cream, and chopped pecans for a sweet and crunchy finish.
- Serve the cake warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
