Posted by : Karen Selwyn Cake, Fresh Apple Crowd-Sized -- pareve
Fresh Apple Cake for a Crowd 4 medium apples 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ginger 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, optional 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 cups sugar 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans 2 eggs 1 cup vegetable oil 2 teaspoons vanilla Peel and coarsely chop the apples. Stir together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, salt and sugar. Add the apples and nuts and toss lightly. Beat together the eggs, oil and vanilla until frothy, about 3 minutes at medium speed. Stir into the flour mixture. Pour into a generously greased and floured 9-by-13-inch pan and bake 35 minutes at 325 degrees. (When done, the cake will be golden, and spring back when touched; because of the apples' moisture, the usual method of inserting a toothpick can be misleading.) Makes 24 servings.
