First, I never had an Aunt Mary. Second, this recipe was from my aunt by marriage. Mary was her aunt. We always called it Aunt Mary’s Apple Cake anyway.
This cake is delicious and simple to make, but does require some upper body work. It is a VERY thick batter ( more like a dough). It takes work to fold in the apples 🙂 It is worth it.
