I've been waiting since November for an opportunity to take breakfast to our community group! I finally got our names on the sign-up sheet for this passed Sunday!! I tried this fresh apple cake that one of Russell's aunts baked at our Thanksgiving gathering, and I wanted a chance to make it for our friends. It was a hit!! So, if you were in community group this Sunday, and you liked the breakfast, here's the recipe! It's been in Russell's mom's family at least 4 generations...I can taste why! :)
Ingredients:
2.5 Cups Flour
2 Cups Sugar
1 Cup Shortening or Butter
4 Eggs
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1 Teaspoon Allspice
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1-2 Tablespoons Vanilla
1/2 Cup Warm Water
3 Medium Apples - peeled and chopped
1/2 Cup Raisins (optional)
Directions:
Mix sugar and shortening with mixer. Add eggs one at a time, using mixer. Blend in cinnamon, allspice, soda and vanilla. Add flour and water. Stir in chopped apples & raisins (optional). Bake in greased bundt pan at 350 50-60 minutes.
