This is a combination of two cake recipes: Paula Dean's Fresh Apple Cake and Uncle Bob's Fresh Apple Cake. I gave them both a twist by adding a couple ingredients and cutting down the sugar of Paul's recipe.My kids love this cake for breakfast- and me and my man can't keep our hands off it any time of the day!
