Apple Cake

We had a Ward Potluck breakfast this morning for the holiday. It was tasty and I got a ton of requests for my recipe, so I thought I'd post it as well!


Apple Cake
1 box yellow cake mix
1 1/3 cup milk
3 eggs
4 large apples (peel and diced)
2 TBS butter
2 TBS Brown Sugar
2 tsp Cinnamon
Streusel Topping (directions below)

Grease 9x13 pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Toss apples into saucepan with 2 TBS butter, 2 TBS brown sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon (ok, let me be honest. I just threw stuff in. I didn't measure. I'm giving you an estimate of what I think I put in. So take that for what it's worth) Cook on medium heat for approximately 3-4 minutes until slightly softened. (again. I didn't time it. I'm just guessing on the time. It might have only been 2 minutes. Maybe it was 7. I don't really know. lol You can also use a can of apple pie filling, but I was looking for a way to use up my apples.

In bowl, mix together cake mix, eggs, and milk. Stir in softened apple mixture.

Streusel Topping:
1 cup quick oats
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 brown sugar
1 stick melted butter
1 tsp cinnamon

Mix together to form scrumptious topping!


Pour half of cake mixture into pan. Top with half of streusel topping. Pour the remaining cake mixture and top with remaining streusel topping. Bake 45 minutes. Enjoy!

I have no idea how this tastes cold, but it sure was delicious piping hot! And it was gone in seconds.
