My co-worker gave me a pile of apples from her property (how cool would that be to just walk outside and pick apples?!) and I was trying to figure out what to do with them.  I’m headed up north to see my parents this weekend and remembered them talking about a craving for this apple cake we hadn’t had in ages, so I decided to make that!

Per the usual I procrastinated until last night and was going to make it when I got home from dinner when I realized it takes 2 hours to bake!  So instead I prepped all of the ingredients and got-up early this morning to make it.  Confession: my SSB (secret single behavior) is that I like to get-up really early and shower then go back to bed.  So in my early-morning, pre-shower, pre-coffee haze I let the pups out, mixed the cake, and popped it in the oven.  Then went back to bed for a good hour before getting ready for the day!

Its super easy to make, you just need a Bundt cake pan and just be prepared that it takes two hours to make!  Here is the apple-cake recipe – note the “batter” is super crumbly, so after I sprayed the pan I kind of pressed it in.

When it came out of the oven it still looked a bit crumbly, but once I flipped it over it was good-to-go!

Enjoy!
