    This was so yummy! My boyfriend requested this for his birthday instead of cake. He took half of it to work and everyone who had it asked for the recipe. it was so moist i didnt feel i needed the frosting. super delicious with a scoop of vanillia ice cream and some caramel!

    My husband could not eat this fast enough - totally delicious!!! Thanks Anne it rocks! I made a couple of changes because of my hubby's diet... I used Arrowhead Mills Organic Spelt flour in place of all purpose flour and I substituted hazlenuts for the walnuts OMG - delicious!!!

    Didn't even want to give it a star.....horrible....too much liquid, even after I reduced the apples (Granny Smiths and cider.... made for a very heavy, wet cake and I usually love anything that Ann makes. The frosting was great....had to throw the cake out....

    What a horrible recipe, the cake is still sitting in my stomach. I had just made Paula Deen's Carrot cake three days ago and it was excellent. Then I watched this show and Anne had said this recipe was very similar to carrot cake... I guess it is to an extent however with no oil in this receipe it makes it very very dense and a tad dry. Also it requires a pan and a food processor to clean up which I would not mind if the recipe was good but it is not. This is my first recipe I have made from Anne and I do not think I will make any others. I hope I can sleep tonight, the cake was so heavy I could not even eat the whole piece and I love to eat!

    Loved this recipe! I especially liked the apple mixture going into the food processor -- makes it much easier! I added 1/3 cup each Apple Butter and Craisins for extra spice and moisture. DELICIOUS!

    Halloween is approaching and I feel a bit like Frankenstein's creator as I switched a few parts around in this recipe! I had over a dozen ripe figs, used them in place of apples and omitted the lemon juice (which I felt was meant to keep the apples from oxidizing. Had no cider, used 1/2 cup cranberry/pomegranite juice. Used less sugar b/c figs were very ripe and very sweet. Used dark raisins and sliced almonds b/c I had them on hand. I skipped the icing, too fussy...it came out great! I think I'll substitute ripe bananas next time. Thanks Anne for the inspiration!

    Great flavor - I have to agree with all of the other comments on here. I will recommend only using about 1 - 1 1/2 cups of the applesauce - in my original attempt I added all of the applesauce that the recipe recommended and the cake did not bake through even though I left it in for an hour and twenty minutes. It is great with or without the raisins and walnuts! Hope you all enjoy!!

    I don't know what I did wrong but it came out nothing like the one I saw being make on TV.
    It was lighter in color and not too dense. I don't think I could have cut it in half if I tried to.
    I would make it again but not add nuts or raisins.

    Had everything on hand so I gave it a whirl. So delicious! The house smelled heavenly for hours afterwards.
    The frosting really made it. Next time I'm going to try using Golden Delicious or Jonathans.
    It's a keeper!
