How to Make Amy S Apple Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Peel and slice 4 medium apples (about 6 cups). In a large bowl, combine the apples with 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and ¼ cup brown sugar. Toss gently to coat.
- Add ½ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the apple mixture. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before serving.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
