Very nice apple cake, simple and tasty! Made for ZWT #9. My batter was stiff too, but it turned out just right, not dry but moist. -
We loved this apple cake. It is full of flavor and very moist. I was a bit worried because the batter was so stiff, but after hand mixing in the shredded apples it was the perfect consistency. Mine was done in about 30 minutes, because I was using an 8x8 pan. Next time I make this, I think I will mix the walnuts into the batter and skip the topping. I loved the apple cake without the topping! My husband wants me to make this again so he can bring it to work. :) -
What a wonderful cake! Super easy to make and incredibly flavourful. Made for ZWT6 Seasoned Sailor and his Sassy Sirens. -
We really enjoyed this cake. It was so easy to make and the cook time was right on. I made it as written and put a dollop of cool whip on each piece. It's got a great moist texture and is easy to get out of the pan. It's a keeper! Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT 6.

This site used to be awesome. It was at the top of its game when it was called Recipezaar, but that was many years ago. The site was purchased by Scripps and belly-flopped into mediocrity. A few of the faithful members remained, hoping to wait out the storm of corporate nonsense. But alas, it never got better and just continued on its terminal path to nothingness. So most of the loyal members have vanished and made homes at better recipe sites.
