Adams County Apple Cake
|
 |
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 cups plus 5 tablespoons sugar, divided
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1/3 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 medium baking apples, peeled and thinly sliced
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Confectioners' sugar, optional
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, 2 cups of the sugar,
oil, eggs, orange juice, salt and vanilla. Beat until thoroughly combined. In
another bowl, toss apples with cinnamon and remaining sugar. Spread one-third of
batter in a greased 10-in. tube pan. Cover with half of the apples. Repeat
layers. Spoon remaining batter over top. Bake at 350° for 1-1/2 hours or
until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 20 minutes
before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Just before serving,
dust with confectioners' sugar if desired.
