Famous Apple Cake from Ladies Who Lunch

Apple Cake. Thank you Lara Blatter!

3 eggs
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 c. oil
1 T. vanilla
1 c. coarsely chopped nuts
(walnuts or pecans)
2 c. flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
4 apples - thinly sliced - I usually use granny smith or braeburn

Spread apples in a greased 9x13 pan.

Beat eggs at high speed until thick and fluffy. Combine sugar and oil and beat into eggs.

In separate bowl stir together flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Add to egg mixture along with vanilla. Stir in nuts. Batter is thicker than a regular cake batter.

Spread batter over apples. Bake at 350 for 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool and frost with cream cheese frosting.
