Excellent moist cake. Used Gala apples and doubled the amount. Doubled the topping as others mentioned, but I read wrong and used 2 tablespoons butter in stead of 2 teaspoons, so I added a couple tablespoons each of rolled oats and flour. It was wonderful.

Hi Zurie,<br/>The cake was wonderful, soft inside and crunchy outside (nuts!).<br/>I've used our apples and nuts from the garden and yogurt instead of sour cream. This worked very well.<br/>As I have sooooo many apples, I used about 700 g (peeled and sliced). Mmmhh... i will keep this recipe in my favorites!<br/>Thanks a lot
