I made this last week and it was a hit at work. I did change the recipe a bit to make it a little healthier. I substituted 1/2 cup of applesauce for the oil and only used 2 tbsp of oil for texture. I used 1/2 cup of brown sugar and 1/2 cup of white sugar. I used all white flour because I do not have any whole wheat. I did add 1/4 tsp of nutmeg but next time I will just do a sprinkle as I found the flavor to be overwhelming. I used ginger gold and cortland apples and left them in large chunks so they didn't melt into the cake. FYI... this cake tastes MUCH better the next day so if you try it right out of the oven don't be disappointed like I was! I cut this into bars and it made a great snack cake.

Easy to make and flavorful too. I used firm Empire apples that were slightly tart and pecans (no walnuts in the house). Served it at 24 hours and it was good, but the next day or two made it even moister. For our tastes, I will add more cinnamon and some cardamon and nutmeg.
