No peeling apples--simple! When I made this batter, it was SO thick I thought I did something wrong--but that's how it will be, per the video. It baked in less than the time noted, an hour and 20 mins. I didn't bother with the glaze, I don't like 'sweet' sweets; this cake is just right, a coffee cake. A little powdered sugar and whipped cream on the side seems a good way to eat this. The first time I used 1/3 barley flour to 2/3 AP flour. The second time, I swapped out the 3 eggs for egg substitute for my toddler granddaughter, who has food allergies. I used diced pears this time. The egg substitute was not enough to make batter the right consistency. I had to add 2 little applesauce containers--unsweetened to make the batter right. This is a great recipe for using up any kind of ripe fruit that you need to salvage. Next time I'm going to use some diced mango.

This cake is outstanding!! It fully deserves all the 5*'s it has gotten.

I cut the sugar in half from 2c. to 1c. & added 1/4c. of brown sugar.Plenty sweet!! Next time I plan to use the Splenda/Sugar mix instead of pure sugar. I also used 3 apples not 2. The chunks of apple in the cake is what makes it so special.

When mixing the cake it almost looks too thick. DON'T BE ALARMED. Especially if you add extra apple, comes out perfectly moist.

I "sparingly" drizzled Duncan Hines Glaze(Vanillaover the top, instead of making one. [Only because I like to keep glaze on hand in the fridge. Great to drizzle over biscuits, cookies, pancakes, crescent rolls, etc.]easy to flavor with cinnamon, lemon, honey, ginger or what ever too.

This recipe has gone in my "favorites" Thanks Paula & Uncle Bob!

I make this cake about every two weeks for our family and there's never a crumb left! I leave off the glaze since it's wonderful without the extra sweetness/calories! The batter is super thick so I add a splash of milk and it adds to the moistness. We absolutely love it!!
