Do you peel the apples? Or would the lack of skin make them
disintegrate during the baking process?

Hmm, this is a new recipe that I haven't tried yet, one that came w/ several
my aunt gave me.

It never occurred to me that there's no mention of peeling the apples in the
recipe.

If it were me I'd choose a sweet apple & peel them. I always hate it when
I'm eating a slice of apple pie & discover a tough peel mixed in the
filling.

I'll have to write to my aunt & ask her about that. Thanks for bringing that
to my attention, Ranger.

I have a fresh apple cake that I make in a fluted iron pan.

I chop the apples pretty small in one of those manual food-processor
like devices..

One time I threw in some sourdough starter, and it really brought out
the taste of the apples.

BTW, did you post the recipe? I didn't see it.

Rhonda.

Sorry to be ignorant but I am English and don't understand American
measurements

I was just wondering what c. stands for as in 4 1/2 c. diced apples.

I guess that it means cup but I am not sure.

They honestly don't have cups in England? What do they use instead?

Another couple of items:
1) Butter? "Most" [sprinkling of the Most Holy Generalities Waters
everywhere] cake mixes I've seen/made require butter. Is this why the
vegetable oil is listed at "1 cup?"
2) Eggs: Room temperature or can they come straight out of the the
"Fridge"? Prolly should be room temperature, though.

Sorry, Ranger haven't been around all weekend.

Yes, room temp eggs do much better & yes on the 1 cup of veggie oil, too.

We don't generally have cups in our measurements. We use millilitres.
It is just that in the America you insist on dumbing down our language
and doing everything differently.

Well, we are not the same country and thus have our own derivatives of the
language much the same as Mexico and Spain are not the same country and have
derivatives. In case you missed it there was a whole battle for independence
that was won big time by the Americans. If you want to email me an address I'd
be happy to send you an American measuring "cup" so that you could translate
this dumber version of recipes. LOL!
