Apple Dapple Cake
From GFM
Apple Dapple Cake <p>Every time my mother presented this cake, she was asked for her recipe. I have seen many recipes similar to this one, but this remains a “treasure” within my family. Courtesy of my mom, Regina Sartalamacchia.</p> <p>Yield: 6 servings</p> <p>Beat together until well blended:<br /> 1-1/2 cups oil<br /> 2 cups sugar<br /> 3 large eggs<br /> 1 tsp. vanilla extract<br /> 1/2 tsp. salt <br /> (don’t overbeat; you’re not trying to incorporate air)</p> <p>Add to the mixture and mix only till blended:<br /> 2-1/2 cups flour (or blend of flours)<br /> 1-1/2 tsp. baking soda<br /> 1/ Tbsp. cinnamon (or more, to taste)<br /> 1/2 tsp. ginger<br /> 1/2 tsp. allspice<br /> 1/2 tsp. mace and/or 1/2 tsp. nutmeg (optional)</p> <p>Fold in:<br /> 3 cups (or three medium) apples of the green baking type, not peeled, cut into quarters, cored, then cut into thin slices.<br /> 1 to 1-1/2 cups broken walnut meats</p> <p>Batter will be quite stiff. Pour/scrape into a tube pan (Bundt pan) which has been well greased with a solid shortening such as Crisco. Place in oven preheated to 400 and immediately lower temperature to 375 After the first fifteen minutes, lower the heat to 350. Bake for a total of 50 to 60 minutes. Cake is done when it has pulled away slightly from the side of the pan and can be touched without leaving a mark.</p> <p>Notes: When I have wanted to lower calories, I have lowered the oil to 1 cup, and the sugar to 1-1/2 cups, and found it is still very good. <br /> One-half-cup more apples and walnuts may also be used.</p>Source: Regina Sartalamacchia (Entered by Judy Shelton)
