Apple Cake

APPLE CAKE

Apples - peel and chop as many as will fit in your pan. I usually use 6-9 apples depending on size. Put them into a big casserole dish.

Mix dry ingredients in a bowl:1 cup Whole Wheat flour
1/2 cup All-Purpose flour
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp allspice

Add wet ingredients:
1 and a bit cup almond/soy milk
1/3 cup oil (I use olive)
1 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp brandy/rum (optional, but very nice if you happen to have it - or an extract - on hand)

Then stir in:
1 cup walnuts
The apples should pretty much fill the entire pan. Pour the cake batter on top and spread to cover all the apples. It will be a pretty thin layer of cake on top of the apples, but it's kind of like an apple crisp... but with cake on top instead of crisp.

Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes depending on how soft you want your apples to be.
