Recipe: Apple spice cake

I have always wanted to make an apple spice cake, but I've never tried. I have several family members who can make an apple spice cake, and I've always found it to be the perfect fall recipe. It tastes wonderful with coffee, and it will make your house smell amazing!


As always, I like to use recipes that only use pantry staples. Most commercially printed cookbooks these days contain recipes with hard to find ingredients and I have a hard time being able to buy all the ingredients. This is why I love church cookbooks and old cookbooks :)

The only thing I changed was not using the walnuts. I have some friends who are allergic to tree nuts and wouldn't be able to enjoy this recipe. I also used an 8x8 nonstick pan instead of a bundt pan. You can also make muffins with this. The top of the cake is just brown sugar and cinnamon.

Here is the recipe for apple spice cake. I hope you enjoy it! As always, right click the card to save to your computer. For best results, change your paper size to 5x7 and print on an index card.

Recipes: Scratch-made peach cobbler


Almost six years ago when my husband and I got married, I received one of the neatest gifts for my bridal shower at church. There is a lady at my church who was first introduced to me as "the best cook in the county." It wasn't an exaggeration. She has baked countless delicious treats for church gatherings, and even made our groom's cake at our wedding. She's also just a super-nice person who is fun to be around.

Favorite Fall Desserts: Apple Crisp


It all started a few nights ago when I was flipping through the West Chatham Food Pantry cookbook, looking for my favorite spaghetti sauce recipe. I finished mixing my ingredients, and absent-mindedly began flipping through the desserts section. I landed on a page full of apple recipes. I had just bought an obscene amount of apples on sale and was worried they'd spoil before I got a chance to eat them all.
