A fellow teacher gave this recipe to Diane, who shared it with my mom.
It's a moist apple cake made in a spring-form pan. Marilyn has made it with milk instead of the suggested liqueur. I've used sweetened espresso instead of Kahlua.
Note: If you use very juicy apples, this cake can be a little "wet" and take a long time to bake. Wash, dry, peel and slice the apples and allow to drain.
Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 10 inch spring form pan. Peel and chop:
- 2 large apples
Mix together:
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 3 beaten eggs, added one at a time
- 2-1/2 cups flour, sifted with:
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 3 tbsp. Kahlua OR cold coffee OR milk
Fold in apples, put the batter in the greased springform pan and bake 1-1/2 hours at 325 degrees.
