I made this as a birthday treat for a co-worker, and it was exactly how she remembered it. Everyone liked it.

My husband’s grandmother gave me this recipe. When she had a stroke a few years back, it became my job to make this for the family gatherings. It’s what my husband requests as his birthday cake!

This is EXACTLY my mother’s Jewish Apple Cake recipe to the t. She grew up in Elizabeth, NJ. I wonder if its a family secret up there! But I know for a fact this cake is moist and always delicious. Thanks for sharing

the apple cake sounded wonderful – I made it a couple days ago. When I took the cake out of the oven after 90 minutes, it still was way undercooked. After more than twice that time, it was finally cooked – barely. It does taste very, very good, but I think it was too moist, almost like a bread pudding. I will make it again, but I will probably only use maybe 8 apples, instead of the 12 I used. It most likely depends a lot on the size of the apples, as well. I used fairly large Jonagolds.
