GRANDMA'S APPLE CAKE
This is a favorite of my late grandma's recipes. She passed away a year ago October 27 and I am just now able to look at her cookbooks and make what I call my memory food. This is a very simple cake and is delicious iced or not. Enjoy!

GRANDMA'S FRESH APPLE CAKE
Moist cinnamon cake enfolding sliced fresh apples makes a delicious dessert or wholesome snack cake. This recipe came from my mother, Ann. I have cut the sugar down to 1 cup, as most modern apples are sweet enough to not need the original 2 cups called for. I like to replace 1 cup of all purpose flour with 1 cup whole wheat flour.

GRANDMA ALICE'S FRESH APPLE CAKE
Years ago when visiting my sister's in-laws, we often were treated to this wonderful Apple Cake as Grandma Alice had a small orchard in her yard. What a joy it was to savor the wonderful aroma of baking apples when we arrived .... the kids who were very young at the time enjoyed it just as much as we did! I have cherished this...
