Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs large
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 4 cups apples, peeled, diced I suggest Granny Smith's
  • vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving optional, but recommended
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray a 9x13 pan with non-stick spray.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat oil and eggs with an electric mixer. Add sugar and vanilla and beat well. Combine flour, salt, baking soda, and ground cinnamon together in a bowl.
  • Slowly add flour mixture to egg mixture and mix until combined. The batter will be thick. Mix in apples until just combined.
  • Spread batter in prepared pan and bake for about 45 minutes or until top looks set but toothpick comes out with moist crumbs attached. Don't over-bake! This is best even slightly underbaked.
  • Let rest on a cooling rack and serve slightly warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
