Jewish Apple Cake reminds me of my Grandmom. She used to make it when I was little and it was one of my favorites.
Jewish Apple Cake
Jewish Apple Cake is one of my favorite things my Grandmother used to make. I remember helping her chop up the apples and sift the flour. So when we went apple picking with the girls during the fall, I knew exactly what I wanted to make. I wanted to share my grandmother’s Jewish Apple Cake with my kids.
Jewish Apple Cake Recipe:
6 baking apples: Peeled, and chopped into small chunks
1 tablespoon cinnamon
5 tablespoons sugar
2 3/4 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup oil
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
3 teaspoons vanilla
4 eggs
We never used nuts but I have seen some Jewish Apple Cakes use walnuts. This is up to you.
Preheat oven to 350.
Grease and flour a Bundt pan. Peel, core and chop apples into chunks. Toss with cinnamon and sugar. Set the apples a side.
Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl. Then, add the baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, orange juice, sugar and vanilla. Mix wet ingredients into the dry ones, then add eggs, one at a time. Scrape down the bowl to ensure all ingredients are mixed together.
Fold in the apples.
Bake for about 1 1/2 hours, or until a tester comes out clean.
