Expert Tips

Apples are loaded with fiber, the soluble kind that helps lower blood cholesterol. Start slowly so your body has time to get used to more fiber.

Delicious, moist and very easy to make. The first time I made this I thought maybe I had forgotten to add something because the batter didn't seem moist enough, but that is the way it is supposed to be. I always use Granny Smith apples and this last time I made it I used Splenda in place of the sugar. It turned out just as delicious as the other times I have made it. I slice my cake up in single servings and freeze them, so when we want a snack we just pull it out of the freezer, pop it in the microwave and in less than a minute it is ready to eat. If I didn't do this we would eat the entire cake in one day, we think it is that good.

When I first mixed this cake up I thought I had left something out (like liquid) or I had gotten something wrong because it didn't look like it was going to be good at all. When I had baked (and it did smell awesome) we couldn't wait for it to cool too much because we wanted to try it right away. It was DELICIOUS! It is important what kind of apples you use. They need to be juicy because as I found out, that's what helps spread the flour mixture out when baking. I used brau (?) apples first and then granny smith apples second. The granny smith apples I didn't like. To make this even more diabetic-friendly I used Splenda instead of sugar and it worked well also. Definitely a keeper!
