A beautiful, delicious cake, worthy of serving as a fall dessert or a Sunday brunch. On the sweet side, but a beautiful consistency and flavor. I used 3 very large Cortland apples and it was just right. If using small to regular sized apples I would definitely be generous.

Excellent! Used 2 cups of sugar instead of 2 1/2. Used peaches instead of apples (double the amount of fruit in either case). Bake for under 60 minutes.

I don't know what I could have done wrong, but this cake was not what I expected. I found it too heavy and a little on the dry side. My husband liked it, but he was pretty much the only one. I don't think I'll be trying this again.

I loved this recipe! My mother-in-law loved it so much she asked for the recipe. I made some changes though: substituted applesauce for the oil, mixed dry ingredients separately and added them to the wet, reduced amount of sugar to 1 1/2 cups to reduce sweetness added from applesauce, greased, sugared and floured pan, and finally, I dusted the cake with powdered sugar once cool. I promise, this cake is so moist and tasty.

this cake was so moist. I brought it to an Israeli fellowship. When I went to grab a piece, there was none left. Everyone raved over this cake.

My mom still makes the best Jewish Apple Cake but this one was right up there with hers. Nice and moist. It was delicious.

I made this recipe for a sick friend, it looked so apetizing that I made one for our house. It was simply wonderful, I will do this one again, and again.

I made this for Thanksgiving and it went over well. My husband rated it a 3 but I would give it a 4... I would make it again, but this time I would add 31/2 apples...
