Very nice apple cake, simple and tasty! Made for ZWT #9. My batter was stiff too, but it turned out just right, not dry but moist.

We loved this apple cake. It is full of flavor and very moist. I was a bit worried because the batter was so stiff, but after hand mixing in the shredded apples it was the perfect consistency. Mine was done in about 30 minutes, because I was using an 8x8 pan. Next time I make this, I think I will mix the walnuts into the batter and skip the topping. I loved the apple cake without the topping! My husband wants me to make this again so he can bring it to work. :)

What a wonderful cake! Super easy to make and incredibly flavourful. Made for ZWT6 Seasoned Sailor and his Sassy Sirens.
