Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 c oil
2 c sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 c apple juice or cider, ( can add more if needed )
3 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp cinnamon
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 c apples, chopped & peeled
1 c pecans, whole or chopped
dash(es) allspice, ground

Steps:

1. Preheat your oven to 325F. Grease & flour a bundt pan or I used a 13x9inch dish. Mix together oil and sugar in a large bowl. Add eggs, vanilla and apple juice and mix well.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the next 4 ingredients together and set aside. In another medium bowl have your apples chopped and ready to go.
3. Mix your dry ingredients to the apple juice mixture and blend well. Fold your apples into the batter only enough to distribute the apples. Sprinkle 1 or 2 dashes of allspice over the top of the cake (I used my fingers) and place your whole pecans (or you can chop them) on top of cake. Bake 55 minutes or until cakes test done in center with a toothpick.
