Apple Dapple Cake

Mmmm.. Another great recipe from Allrecipes. com

I found this recipe a long time ago on the website, but keep forgetting to post and take a picture of it. This one of our favorite apple cakes and I don't make it as often as we would like because it's very high in calories with all that butter and oil, but it's very delicious.

I only put the apples and chopped walnuts in the mix, because I don't like raisins or coconut and I do not make a glaze
This cake always comes out very good and moist.

Enjoy !
