German Apple Cake Recipe
Got this from a dear old family friend who was just the best cook! Layers of buttery cake, cinnamon sugar and apples make this my family's favorite. ..and everyone else's, too! Thanks for sharing, Peg.

Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 5 tablespoons sugar
  • 4 cups apples, peeled, sliced
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. First, mix cinnamon and 5 tablespoons of sugar together and set aside.
  3. Mix cake ingredients for 4 minutes using mixer. Grease and flour bundt or tube pan. Pour a layer of batter, then a layer of apples - sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar mixture. Alternate layers, ending with a layer of batter 2 more times.
  4. Bake for 1 1/2 hours.
  5. NOTE: I use peaches instead of apples sometimes! If you do, make sure they're not overripe or they'll be too wet for the cake. Equally delicious!
  6. NOTE: I use a charlotte pan - it is a little larger than a regular bundt pan and makes a beautiful presentation.

I love apples and cinnamon. I can't wait for apple season!


Oh, this sounds absolutely delightful, you can never go wrong with cinnamon and apples.


Wow this sounds great thank you linda


YUMMMMM! You hit the spot again! Thanks! :)


Sounds too good to pass up, a keeper.


Another great post! Not waiting for apple season for this one....thanks!


This sounds fabulous! I hope you don't mind if I make a suggestion. When I make banana, apple or even chocolate chip loaves, after spraying my pan instead of flouring them, I coat the inside with a cinnamon and sugar mixture. I bet that would be so good with this recipe. I can't wait to make this cake.


I posted a recipe similar to this today. I know this is good for sure....5 from me .
