Ingredients

4 cups chopped peeled apples
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped pecans
SAUCE:
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon rum extract

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the apples and sugar. Let stand for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, oil and almond extract. Add to apple mixture and toss to coat. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon; stir into apple mixture just until moistened. Stir in pecans.
Transfer to a greased 11x7-in. baking dish. Bake 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
For sauce, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the sugar, flour and salt until smooth. Gradually add water. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in extracts. Serve with warm cake.
