I got this recipe from my friend Danita Berg.
1/2 cup butter
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
4 apples pealed and cut into chunks
3 cups flour
1cup of pecan pieces (optional)
Cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and mix well. Add dry ingrediants and apples and mix until just blended. Pour into a greased pan.
(I made this last night and my cake batter wasn't much of a batter, but more crumbs. So, I added a splash of vanilla and about 1/2-3/4 cup of milk to make it a batter.)
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes. Cool completely and top with warm caramel.
Caramel Sauce
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 heavy whipping cream
1 tsp vanilla
pinch of salt
Bring all ingrediants to a boil in a saucepan. Boil 6-7 minutes. Remove from heat and cool about 5 minutes. Pour over cooled cake.

I'm so glad the cake was a hit. When I've made it, it's also been crumbly - not really a batter. I've found it works just by packing the crumbles into the pan. The apples cook and moisten the crumbly batter. But I'm never opposed to adding milk or cream to much of anything. ;)
This was really yummy! Thanks for sharing.
