As you have probably quessed, I as not as much a creator of recipes as I am a collector or recipes from lots of friends over the years and from places we have lived or visited. I first ate this German Apple Cake at our friends', the Wilmoth's house in Southern California. Gwen was sweet to give me the recipe and I have used it for nearly to 30 years. Once the apples (I prefer Fuji or Granny Smith) are peeled and sliced, the cake comes together very fast. It is very moist, and full of flavor. It is great served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
