Ingredients

3 C. flour
1-1/2 C. sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
4 eggs
1 C. vegetable oil
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 C. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
Dash salt
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
Sugar (as needed)
Ground cinnamon (as needed)

Cooking Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl place the flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, oil, vanilla, lemon juice and salt. Mix the ingredients together well. 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.
