Serves 8-10.

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 1/2 c vegetable oil
• 1 c white sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 c all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 4 c baking apples, peeled, cored, 1/4-inch chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, beat eggs with a whisk. Add oil and beat until creamy.
3. Add the sugar and vanilla; beat well.
4. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Slowly add this mixture to the egg mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until combined. The batter will be thick, almost like cookie dough.
5. Fold in the apples. Spread batter in a thin, even layer in the prepared pan.
6. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan on a rack.
