No Fat Old Fashioned Apple Cake

Here is a recipe that I found on the www.recipe4living.com website. "Sure, 100 years ago it was ok to bake with lard, but in our modern times we've wizened up to the scary truth of fat. This cake has the same spicy taste of that 100-year old recipe… but without the fat."
