Jewish Apple Cake

Ingredients

• 5 teaspoons white sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.

2. 2

   To make the cinnamon-sugar: Combine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside.

3. 3

   To make the cake: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir in oil, eggs, orange juice, and vanilla until well combined.

4. 4

   Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared pan, then top with 1/2 of the sliced apples and sprinkle with 1/2 of the cinnamon-sugar. Repeat once more with remaining batter, apples, and cinnamon-sugar.

5. 5

   Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 70 to 90 minutes. Cool briefly in the pan; run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or rack and let cool completely.
