JEWISH APPLE CAKE RECIPE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease and flour a 10" tube or 12 cup Bundt pan.In a mixing bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar and add apple slices. Toss to coat. Set aside.In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt, then add sugar, oil, eggs, juice, and vanilla and beat until smooth. Batter will be very stiff.Spoon a third of the batter into the bottom of the pan. The batter will be thick so once you spoon it in, give it a slight "shimmy" to create an even layer. Arrange half the sliced apples on top, then add another third of the batter, the remaining apples, and top with the last third of the batter. Use your best rubber spatula to get all the good batter from the bowl so none goes to waste! Apples won't be completely covered.Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting onto a serving platter. Then let it cool completely.You can top the cake with a simple powdered sugar-and-orange juice glaze, a dusting of powdered sugar, or serve it as-is! Slice and enjoy!
MOM'S FAVORITE JEWISH APPLE CAKE
I've been making this cake for over 30 years, and always get great compliments from it. Even my sweets-hating husband likes this one. I've been making it for my mother's birthday for years...it's her favorite. It's a dense cake with great flavor, so if you're looking for a light, fluffy cake, this is not for you!

MARVELOUS JEWISH APPLE CAKE
This cake is extremely delicious. I got this recipe from cooking class and this by far the best food we ever made in that class. Everyone loves it. I'm not a huge fan of apple cake but I really don't mind the apples in this recipe. I sometimes make this recipe without the apples and it tastes great. You have to try it, otherwise you are definitely missing out. *Helpful hints for making the cake* -Sweeter apples = sweeter cake -I usually use 3 apples because 4 is a lot for me -Applesauce is a substitute for oil. I use 1/2 cup oil and 1/2 cups applesauce. Depends how less fattening you want it to be. -I would core and peel apples after I am done the batter so they won't brown. Or you could put lemon juice on them. -Do not put cinnamon sugar mixture on top of your last batter when poured in pan. It will burn since it is on the top.
