Wow! Thanks to all of you for all the apple cake ideas. I have been getting a bit tired of making apple crisps and pies when I have some apples around that are starting to get soft.
I am late to the party again, but here’s an apple cake that I have made for years, an old southern favorite that I first sampled many years ago. I do not use the glaze. Tried it once and didn’t like it much that way. Cook in a bundt pan. Depending on your oven, I would check for done at 45 or 50 min. Enjoy
