Mother's Day Cake!!!

This is one of the best cakes I've had and made, of course it's a Paula Deen recipe and you can never go wrong with them.


I was so nervous about making this cake for mother's day because it's from scratch and sometimes they tend to be a little dry but went ahead and made it anyways. My family was delighted at how good it came out and how soft and juicy it was, the outside of the cake its a little crunchy but the inside it's perfect and moist. My mom enjoyed it very much and that was my purpose!!!!

Uncle Bob's Fresh Apple Cake

Ingredients:

3 cups diced Granny Smith apples, about 2 apples ( I used 3 Gala apples)
1 cup lightly toasted chopped walnuts
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
3 eggs

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease a Bundt pan or tube pan.

In a bowl, mix together the apples, walnuts, vanilla, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Using an electric mixer beat the sugar, oil, and eggs in a large bowl. Add in the dry ingredients and beat until completely combined. Fold in the apple mixture. The mixture will be very, very thick so don't get scared y'all.

Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until a tester inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. 

Allow the cake to fully cool in the pan, about 1 hour, and then turn it out onto a plate.

Drizzle the apple cake with some of your favorite glaze, serve and enjoy!


Here is a piece of my awesome cake, enjoy!!!! Have and awesome day. :)
