Equipment

  • Stand mixer

Ingredients

  • 7 apples peeled, cored and sliced
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon allspice
  • 4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 teaspoon white sugar
  • 3 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 inch pan. Whisk together flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and baking powder.
  • In the large bowl of a stand mixer, beat eggs and sugar for 15 minutes on high speed with an electric mixer or a hand mixed - MAKE SURE TO DO THE FULL 15 MINUTES. Add the oil and beat until fully incorporated.
  • Add dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. Fold in apples. Pour batter into the pan.
  • Mix the cinnamon and sugar teaspoons and sprinkle over the cake.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about an hour. After 50 minutes check the cake - if a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean, the cake is finished.

Notes

This cake is great cooled slightly, right out of the oven. But is also one of those unicorn cakes that is equally good, if not ever-so-slightly better a day or two later. It also freezes for months when properly wrapped.
