Amazing Apple Dapple Cake with a Caramel-Pecan Glaze

Recipes

I don’t post recipes very often, but when I do you better believe they’re my absolute favorites.

Mrs. Spoone’s Apple Dapple cake is a legend where I work. The few times a year when my friend, Veronica, brings her mother’s cake to work, the news spreads like wild-fire. We arrange our work schedules so we can fit coffee and Apple Dapple into our shift.

Thank you, Freida Spoone, for allowing me to share your recipe!

Amazing Apple Dapple Cake with a caramel-pecan sauce

Ingredients for the Apple Dapple Cake:

1 1/2 cups oil (For a lower-fat cake, substitute 1 cup of applesauce plus 1/2 cup of oil.)
2 cups of sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
3 eggs, well beaten
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
3 medium-size apples, peeled and grated

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the ingredients by hand. Mix flour, salt and baking soda and set aside. In a separate bowl, mix oil, sugar and vanilla. Stir in well-beaten eggs. Add in dry ingredients. Stir in apples and pour into a greased and floured bundt cake pan. Bake for 35-45 minutes. Allow to cool before topping with the glaze.

    Oh my goodness! This is delicious and so beautiful. Made it in regular pans, cut in squares and glazed dripped down sides beautifully. Fed 100 people at our Wednesday night church meal. People raved over it and so many asked for the recipe, we now are making it for our Christmas program (1150 people). Thank you! Thank you!
