Jewish Apple Cake
4 apples (2 gala and 2 granny) 2 teaspoons cinnamon 5 tablespoons sugar

3 cups all purpose flour (or 2 cups of all purpose plus 1 cup of whole wheat flour) 2 cups sugar 1 cup vegetable oil (or ½ cup vegetable oil plus ½ cup unsweetened apple sauce) 4 eggs ¼ cup OJ (orange peach mango works fine) 3 teaspoons baking powder 2 ½ teaspoons vanilla ¼ teaspoon salt

Peel, core, and cut apples into small/medium dice. Sprinkle them with the cinnamon and 5 tablespoons sugar; mix and set aside.

Combine all other ingredients in order given and beat to make smooth batter; batter will have a thick consistency.

Pour half the batter into a greased bundt pan. Arrange half of the apples over the batter (sprinkling is fine, you do not need to make them look pretty), and cover with reaming half of batter. Top with rest of apples.

Place in oven and bake for 1 to 1 ½ hours or until cake is golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes in pan, then turn out of pan onto rack and let cool. Sarah Robinson, 3/25/11 (Ester Darame, family friend)
