Holiday Gift Cakes

We've been the lucky recipient of these gift cakes, as have so many others, for years.  The recipe is from Mark W. Reinhardt.  Don't wait for a holiday to make these delicious cakes! 

Ingredients for Two cakes:

4 C  White Flour

2 C Whole Wheat Flour

2 t  Baking Soda

½ t salt

3 T  “Egg Replacer” Phony Chickens’ Eggs

3 T  Ground Cinnamon

1 t  Ground Nutmeg

 

2 1/2 C  Vegetable Oil

2 C  Unsweetened Applesauce

4 C  Sugar

2 T  Vanilla Extract

3 C (or 1-1/2 lb., or 6 small, or 3 large)  Tart Apples, peeled, cored, and sliced

2 C (or more!)  Walnut or Pecan pieces

 

Build your cake this way:

  • Mix together the oil, sugar, applesauce, apples and nuts in a large bowl.

  • Combine the flour, spices, fake eggs and baking soda, and then mix in with the rest.

  • If you use a lot of whole wheat flour you may have to add a small amount of water. The batter should have the consistency of ready-mix concrete (even though it, hopefully, won’t taste like it).

  • Pour everything into a greased and floured large (9"x5") baking pan.

  • Bake for 2 hours at 350ºF
