Into a greased and floured 10 inch tube pan spoon 1/3 of the batter. Place 1/2 of the apple slices on top. Sprinkle them generously with the sugar and cinnamon. Place another 1/3 of the batter on top. Add the rest of the apples. Sprinkle on some more sugar and cinnamon. Place the final 1/3 of the batter on top. Bake the cake for 1 and 1/4 hours, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes. Remove the cake from the pan and let it cool on a rack for 10 minutes longer.
