I have made this recipe twice and everyone loved it. The cake is tasty and fluffy. First time I didn´t have enough pecans, so I added some sliced almonds, also, I used pumpkin pie mix spice instead and it came out great!!

This is a very good apple cake recipe. Moist and delicious. I like my cakes that have fruit in them to be on the chunkier side, so instead of shredding the apples, I sliced them still thin, but not too thin so you can still see the chunks of apple. I halved the cinnamon and replaced the missing half with apple pie spice, I think it gave it a little something extra. I was pleased with the result. I will definitely keep this recipe on file and use it again and again. I will play with it a little bit though. Replace the butter with applesauce, try out different kinds of apples, I think I'll even add raisins next time. I think apples and raisins go very well together. Plus raisins and cinnamon are a great combo as well. The cake surprisingly isn't too sweet, I thought with the cup of sugar and the apples I used which were already sweet would have made it that way, but it was perfect. Happy baking to you all, I highly recommend people try this. (:
