this is the best! my mom always made for christmas. You need a struesel pan. Ingredients are as follows. 6-8 tart apples, peeled and thin sliced mixed with 4 tsp of cinnamon and 10 Tblesp of sugar. mix and set this to the side. Then mix 3 C of regular flour, 3 tsp of baking powder, 2 C of sugar, 1 C of oil, 4 unbeaten eggs, 1 tsp of salt, 1/3 C of orange juice and 2 tsp of vanilla. Directions: preheat oven at 350. beat together on high all of the ingredients above (except for the apple mixture)until well blended. Grease and flour pan then pour as follows: 1/2 batter, 1/2apples until all is gone. Bake on Bottom rack of oven for 1hr and 45 min. Check at 1-1/2 hours. depending on your altitude it may get done quicker. when cake is done turn out on to a plate. This recipe is awesome and I'll promise you that you will enjoy this.
