How to Make Light Apple Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch ring mold or fluted tube pan.
- Peel and thinly slice about 4 medium apples (approximately 4 cups sliced apples).
- In a medium bowl, toss the sliced apples with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon apple juice concentrate, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Add ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 cup apple juice concentrate, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 large egg, 2 large egg whites, and 2 tablespoons orange juice to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan.
- Layer half of the apple mixture over the batter.
- Repeat with the remaining batter and apples.
- Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
