YUM! I used 1/2 oil and 1/2 applesauce. Very moist. I cut up and froze in zip lock bags, and when I eat I simply put them in a toaster oven.

What went wrong. There is so much oil it soaked through a napkin and when I push on the cake is runs out. Has a very bland flavor and the apples are mush despite I cut them then kinda big.

Well, I have the dissenting opinion on this cake, so give it a try before making up your mind. I've been baking a lot of cake recipes from this site in order to find one worthy of entering in our local fair, and this one is not in the running. I served it to two different sets of guests as well as my family but, after a week, ended up throwing half away because nobody would eat seconds. It is moist, so that's not the problem. The flavor is somewhat flat, though - just not a cake that grabbed us and had us wanting more.

YUM. This recipe serves as a great base for variations...I didn't have the cherries, so I used raisins. Since I used that combo, I added spice: Fresh Nutmeg, Cinnamon and Cardamom Powder (All 3 mixed to a total of about 2 teaspoons.) My inlaws (from India) loved it! The cake itself baked a dream! No complaints here! I must try sometime as written (with cherries)!

This cake was delicious! I had tons of apples and I was getting sick of making only apple pies, so I tried this one out. I did change a few things, though. I didn't use the cherries because I don't like them and I used crushed almonds instead of walnuts because we have a realative allergic to walnuts. And, at the end, while the cake was still hot, I poked holed in the top and poured hot caramel (from a jar) over it. All the hot caramel sunk into the cake. To die for!!!

This was a great recipe. Next time I'm going to add a few more apples and a carmel glaze on top. Thanks!

This recipe is incredibly versatile. To give the outer edge of this cake a nice carmel flavor I use some brown sugar and reduce the white sugar accordingly. In addition, I use a single serve of strawberry applesauce in with the apples and a tad of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to taste. I haven't tried using the maraschinos yet, but I will!

This is fantastic. I made this once with apples and blue berries and once with bananas and cranberries. Delicious with a vanilla glaze over it. I also added a single serving of flavoured apple sauce. I just find it always makes cakes more moist.

Gigi, thank-you so much! This cake is wonderful! Moist, full of apple flavor, and pretty to boot with the specks of cherries. This will be the holiday gift from me to my neighbors this year. Delicious! gi

The cherries gave this cake reddish color on the inside which was quite unusual but great for holiday seasons, apples gave it moisture, while the nuts were the crispy little bits that improved cake's texture. I'm definitely making this cake again.
