Ingredients

4 cups peeled and diced apples I like to use 4½ to 5 cups
2 cups sugar
½ cup oil
1 cup chopped nuts pecans or walnuts
1 cup golden raisins
2 eggs well beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups flour general purpose, not self rising
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350.
In a bowl, combine apples and sugar and mix thoroughly.
Add oil, nuts, raisins, eggs and vanilla.
Mix dry ingredients together and then add to the apple mixture.
Bake in a greased 13×9 inch pan for 1 hour but check after 45 minutes because depending on the type of apples you use it may be done sooner.
I like to use a combination of apple varieties in this cake, particularly Golden Delicious, Criterion, and McIntosh.
