CHUNKY APPLE SNACK CAKE

Chunky Apple Snack Cake image

We enjoy this cake as a snack, packed in lunches or as a scrumptious dessert when warmed and topped with a scoop of low-fat ice cream. If the batter seems really thick, don't worry: Once you stir in the apples it loosens up. -Cindy Beberman, Orland Park, Illinois
