This is a fast & easy recipe that tastes wonderful. I would like to mention that it does not call for 2 1/2 cups of oil, as someone stated earlier...but 1 1/2 cups of oil. I baked mine in a bundt pan and it was marvelous!

I halfed the recipe since it seemed alot for making a first time. I pretty much followed the recipe except for two slight changes. Like most everyone, I didn't use all the oil it asked for. I just added a little more applesauce. I also used a homestyle applesauce that had chunks of apples in it. It came out incredibly moist! My little ones loved it, even with out the confectioner sugar sprinkled on top. Not too sweet. I put it in an 8x8 pan. Next time I'll just make as muffins. Will definitely be making again.

Excellent recipe. Very moist and easy to make. I used a stoneware bundt pan and had to increase cooking time a bit, but it turned out wonderful!

This cake was delicious, moist and very easy, I've made it twice and everyone has loved it. I made this cake in a bundt pan. I did make a couple of substitutions... I replaced 1/2 cup of oil with an additional 1/2 cup of applesauce (I always do that to reduce fat), I also added 1/2 teaspoon of ground cloves for extra spice. I only needed to cook it for 40 minutes.

This is a wonderful cake! I followed the suggestions made by another reviewer. I substituted an extra 1/2 cup applesauce for 1/2 cup oil. I also used a bundt pan. I had to cook for 50 minutes, and it probably could have baked a little longer, but it was fine. It didn't come out of the pan clean, that is my only complaint, otherwise it was DELICIOUS! I didn't use anything to top it, but it would be great with a cream cheese frosting. I will do that next time. My husband took some back to work with him to share with his work buddies. He absolutely raved about it! It was so easy, I will make this again and again!

Fabulous!!! Thanks for the suggestions of substituting 1/2 cup applesauce for 1/2 oil. I ran out of plain applesauce and used apple/strawberry sauce instead; added just a bit of nutmeg - my boys (19 & 13) absolutely love it. Can't keep them away from it!!! (lol) Thanks!!! :)

Great recipe! I substituted 1/2 cup oil for 1/2 cup applesauce and used self raising flour. The cake turned out perfect except for being a little more moist than I would've liked. So, for the next time, I would omit the extra applesauce and cook it for a little bit longer. The cake has a muffin sort of texture and would even be great baked as individual muffins. I highly recommend this recipe to those who love the apple/cinnamon flavour!
