This is a good recipe. The first time around I used a low fat soy oil. BIG MISTAKE. It came out too mushy and couldn't hold shape. I threw almost the whole cake out it was a complete failure. BUT 2nd time I used 3/4 cup of Canola oil which worked well. I used half white half brown sugar. I also sprinkled some extra cinnamon on top, which was a nice touch. I baked it for 40 mins in a 10X14 (aprox) 1" pan. A little difficult to cut, but delicious and will be happy to offer it to friends.

This cake was really good! Instead of 1 cup oil I used 1/4 cup oil and 1/4 cup melted butter. I also reduced the sugar by a little over a 1/4 cup using a mix of brown and white sugar and I think I'll use even less next time. The middle of the cake didn't cut very smoothly but the rest held together fine. I baked it in a 9 inch round cast iron pan and so the cooking time was longer.

Wow, this was really moist, delicious cake! The cinnamon really added depth and the moisture added by the apple was so good. I will make this cake again.

AMAZING!!!! Even after my attempts at making it a little healthy!!! I used wholemeal SR flour as well as the baking soda. I substituted half a cup of applesauce for half a cup of oil and cut out about half a cut of sugar. Really yummy! Thanks for the recipe!

I made this for the youth group at my church and it was literally gone in less that 2 minutes. One of the students actually picked up the dish it was in and licked it. I will be making it again!

I didnt like this At all. I even reduced the oil due to other reviews and it was still too oily. I put this in a 9" cake pan and I had some extra batter, so I put the rest in to cup cake pans. The cupcakes turned out better because they didnt seem so oily. If you are going to make this I suggest making it as cupcakes rather than a cake.

I made this cake today for the first time and I was not impressed. The batter was more like "cookie dough" and when I added the apples, it got "sticky". Also, it took over an hour to get done. My husband didn't think much of it. I probably won't make this one again...I will try other recipes though. I don't give up that easily.

All in all, it was a tasty cake considering how extremely easy it is to throw together. It also makes your whole house smell wonderful while it's cooking! Everyone really seemed to like this except for me. I guess because I am a "texture" person and I thought it was too mushy. I actually reduced the oil to 3/4 cup and I'm very glad I did! I would make it again sometime and either add more flour or cook it longer than the recipe says too.

This cake was so very good!. Good way to use up those apples from the apple orchard this time of year. I cut the recipe in half using the recipe calculator they give you and they dont change the pan size only the ingredients. I didnt realize that until after I greased and floured the pan but oh well this was still awesome!!

I've made this cake twice in the last few weeks. It's very easy and sooo tasty. The hardest thing is peeling and cutting up the apples! The only change I made is to slice the apples instead of dicing them. Don't think it matters much either way. Oh, and I served each piece with a large dallop of whipped cream. Yum! I made it Sunday for my mom's birthday dessert. She is 84 now and insisted on taking a large piece home. Very very good. Thanks!....an update 10/06/08 I made this again on Sunday, this time I used a 1/4 cup less oil and I still sliced the apples instead of dicing. Mine took just about 38 minutes. Once again, very very good!

This is a great cake. I made some changes, based on some of the reviews: I used only 1.5 cups sugar (would have made half of that brown sugar if I had any), and I used 1/2 cup butter and only 1/4 cup oil. I also added pecans. It's delicious.

Excellent! Like others, I halved the oil, but used butter instead. I also spiced it up a bit more with fresh ground nutmeg and a tad of cloves and added 1/2 cup chopped walnuts. YUMMY!

I substituted half the white flour with whole wheat (my secret ingredient), half the white sugar with brown, and half the oil with applesauce. Two good-sized Granny Smiths were the perfect amount. Shared this yummy cake with family, friends and co-workers. It was a big hit! Next time I might try a drizzle of caramel sauce over the top, or maybe add nuts. Any way you try it, it's DELISH!
