A fairly good cake to serve with coffee in the morning, but not memorable. I chose the recipe since it calls for more apples than most, and I have five apple trees which are now producing like crazy.

I love it! It's moist and very tasty. Everyone who has tasted it has begged for the recipe or for me to make it for them again. It takes a little time to make but is still really easy!

This cake is extremely light and delicious. I only used 1.5 cups of sugar (next time i will only use 1 cup)and i added an extra apple. I even cut back the oil! I would also omitt the sugar/cinnamon on top. I love this cake!

Great apple cake recipe! I added 1 cup of raisins and also decreased the sugar to less than 1.5 cups. I sprinkled the top generously w/cinnamon and sugar and tossed the apples w/cinnamon before adding to mixture. I have made other apple cakes and this one didn't get moist and gooey on top the day after I baked it. This recipe is perfect without being too rich or sweet.

I've been searching for a recipe for Apple Cake that is just like Grandma's....this was close but not quite "it". It baked up nice and light (probably that 15 minute beating time!) and moist, but Grandma's was much more dense and a bit sweeter. Thanks for sharing though!

Very moist cake. Next time I make it, I plan to leave off the cinnamon and sugar topping. Cake got too brown, but the taste was very good without tasting sweet.

Ok, I made this recipe like 5 times already and everyone who has tried it loved it. The only thing different I did was make a cream cheese icing for it. It was delicious, I know I will continue to make it. Thanks!!!

I LOVED this recipe!!! It was so good, better than I had imagined. I used more apples and mixed most into the batter, but then saved a lot to place neatly on top of the batter, completely covering the cake and then sprinking the sugar and cinnamon on top of that. It looked very nice and tasted amazing!
