Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 4 medium (1 1/2 pounds) apples
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (mixed with 2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon)
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons butter extract
  • 2 teaspoons orange extract
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.

  • Step 2: Slice apples and place in a bowl; set aside.

  • Step 3: Beat eggs, gradually beat in sugar, then oil.

  • Step 4: Re-sift flour with baking powder and salt, add beaten mixture in small amounts, alternately with orange juice. Beat in extracts.

  • Step 5: Pour about one quarter of the batter into prepared pan.

  • Step 6: Arrange apple slices on top and sprinkle a little cinnamon-sugar mixture over the apples.

  • Step 7: Repeat these layers using about a quarter of the batter each time.

  • Step 8: Make sure that the last layer is finished off with batter only.

  • Step 9: Bake at 350-degrees-Fahrenheit for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until it tests done with a toothpick(refer to Note below).

  • Step 10: Remove pan from the oven and let cool and remove from pan.

  • Step 11: Sprinkle confectioners sugar over top (or additional cinnamon-sugar mixture).

  • Step 12: Slice and serve.

  • NOTE: the total time that it takes to fully bake normally takes me longer than 1 hour, therefore test it before pulling it out of the oven. Note though that the toothpick may not completely come out clean for the reason that the toothpick may be piercing a juicy apple, but as long as it doesn't come out with uncooked batter it should be fine.
