Ingredients

• 3 cups apples (peeled, cored, and diced)
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced apples and sugar. Stir well and set aside for 10 minutes to allow the apples to release their juices.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 4

To the apple mixture, add the eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended.

Step 5

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet apple mixture. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

If using chopped nuts, gently fold them into the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and spread it out smoothly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Slice and serve as is, or pair with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra treat!
