Lovely light and not too sweet cake. I added some chopped apple in the batter as another reviewer had suggested and I ended up using 4 small apples all up, would probably add even more next time. I didn't finish using the sugar and cinnamon mixture on top, it just seemed like too much. I will follow some of the other reviewers and add some cinnamon in the batter mixture next time also.

This cake turned out great! Lovely, light and very delicious! I made a couple substitutions to it though - instead of 1/2 cup shortening I used 1/2 cup butter and I used 1 cup (packed) brown sugar instead of the white. Also added a couple dashes of cinnamon and a few more chopped apples in the batter. Just made this lastnight and it's practically gone already! Will definitely make this again.

Very Good. The cake was very light. We added another apple diced up into the cake batter with some cinnamon.

This was sooooo good. My sister made it last night and my family devoured it all within an hour of coming out of the oven. I was astonished when I came to have a piece and there was barely any left! I've never tasted a cake this good in my life. It was absolutely divine. The sugar on top made it crispy and gooey, and she used granny smith apples which worked out perfectly. I can't wait to have it again!

This cake is DIVINE! I made it in a 9x11 pan and used three granny smith apples. My family managed to eat the entire thing within one hour of it coming out of the oven! It was soooo good. Crispy top with light cake on the bottom and perfectly baked apples. I think I'll have to make this one again very soon. Yum.

Super yummy! I also added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter. I didn't have to cook mine for the whole time though. Check it during baking. I will definitely make this again!

It went together nicely ans smelled delicious in the oven but wjhen I went to look at it , it is horribly overflowing my pan. I didn't have a 7 x 11 pan but used a 10 x 8 pyrex dish. I am hoping it tastes as good as it smells but does anyone know why I'm overflowing?

My husband is Dutch and although he'd never had a cake like this one - he LOVED it! We all did. (I didn't have vanilla in the house at the time I made this, so I substituted 1/2 tsp rum flavoring for 1 1/2 tsp vanilla)

yummy and filling without being overly rich or sweet, I added a little cinnamon and cloves to the batter just to spice it up, its perfect for brunches, I sent it to work with my husband one day and it was a definite hit at the office :)

I made this apple cake with apples that had been hanging aroung the kitchen and it was so moist and delicious. The cinnamon and sugar combo added to the top really gave it a great gooey flavor. I'm embarassed to say, but I ate most of it before my family could get any. I guess it gives me an excuse to make more!!

This cake is so good. It is similar to a coffee cake and would be good served at a brunch.
