INGREDIENTS:
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 C white sugar
5 apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
3 C flour
1 tsp salt
1 Tbl baking powder
4 eggs
1 C white sugar
1 C brown sugar
1/4 C apple juice
1 Tbl vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan.
2. Mix cinnamon, 3/4 cup of sugar, and apples in a bowl; set aside. Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl. Beat the eggs and 2 cups of sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Pour in the flour mixture alternately with the oil. Beat in the orange juice and vanilla until smooth and thoroughly mixed. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Layer half of the apples on top. Pour the remaining batter over, then finish by topping with the rest of the apples.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 30 minutes to 1 hour and 45 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
Note: The original recipe called for 2 C white sugar, but I like the richness that brown sugar adds, so I did 1 C white and 1 C brown sugars. It also called for 1/4 C orange juice, but since it was an apple cake, I used apple juice. I also drizzled the finished cake with a simple powder sugar + milk + almond extract icing and it was perfectly sweet!
