I have been making this recipe for many years, and it's my all time favorite apple cake. For a bit more orange flavor, add a bit of grated orange rind. Don't be stingy with the apples; my original recipe called for 4 apples, but I found that it needs 6 to make it delicious. Also, don't overbake the cake. When it achieves the nicely browned crust of a good pound cake, use the toohpick test and you'll find it is perfect. This cake keeps well.
