K, I finally made it over here and it looks so sweet, I have to add one!

This is a recipe I got from my husbands grandmother (now 92). She got it from her g'mother, years and years ago.

Apple Cake

Preheat oven to 350, grease and flour bundt pan (time and temp vary for other pans, if using a rectangular cake pan, decrease cook time by about 10 minutes, do not use an unglazed stoneware baker, it dries the cake out)

Dry ingr.

3 C All Purpose Flour
2 C Sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon

*(no you can't cheat and use self rising flour, it doesn't work)

Wet ingr.
1 C oil (no substitutions found here, I've tried)
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla (or almond) extract

1 C chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
4-5 Granny Smith Apples, diced (med size apples)

Stir together all dry ingr. in a large bowl, WITH A SPOON, stir in all other ingr. (do not try to use a mixer, it will burn up, you'll be mad, and I'll have to laugh and say "told ya so") Add apples and nuts, pour (well, doesn't really pour, but put it)in the pan, bake for 1 hour, cool, enjoy.
