My grandma made this. She got it from her mom. She let the apples brown in the bowl for a little while along with a spoon of sugar, idk why. Then added some flour to the apples and tossed, she said it keeps the moisture of the apples in the cake from being off. I have tried both ways and she was right it makes a difference. She also added a little shredded coconut if she had it.
My mom sent me the Calling All Cooks Cookbook (AT&T Pioneers Alabama Chapter No. 34) and this recipe is in it. I don’t recall my Granny ever making this cake, but my mom says she used this cookbook. I was feeling nostalgic for my Granny’s cooking. None of us ever wrote down her recipes before she passed away and I feel like true Southern cooking and baking is becoming a lost art. Thank you for your recipe. It’s exactly like how this cookbook has it. I’m a visual learner so it was nice to find a video to go with the written recipe.
I made the cake without glaze. It is delicious and sweet enough. Thumbs up. I would have liked to see the cake on the cake plate before you sliced it. Thank you.
My Grandmother used to make this recipe! I'm anxious to try myself. Thanks for the help! I swear I could smell the glaze when you showed it cooking! Such wonderful memories!

Yeeesss! Loved this cake since I first tried it in the 1980's. Thanks so much for making it for us. LOVE your white nesting bowls btw 😍

Thank you for this nice and simple recipe! I made it today and came out awesome! I did also add half cup of golden raisins and cranberries. 😊

I enjoyed watching this, you are very original and I love that!!! Thanks!
I’d be tempted to mix that stiff batter/dough with my hand once the apples are added.
Have you ever tried substituting apple sauce in place of oil? I do that a lot to cut the fat.
That caramel glaze on your made from scratch cake looks crazy good!
