Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 0.75 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups chopped apples
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chopped apples and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the cake into squares and serve as-is or with a dusting of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream.
