One of the blogs I read almost daily is Southern Plate. Christy is a southern girl who posts recipes with beautiful photo tutorials. If I didn’t know better, I would think she had been raised by my mom or other close relative because so many of her recipes are ones I remember from my childhood or are still in my files that I use frequently. Last week was Apple Week at Southern Plate. The timing was excellent as we had just picked a couple of bushels from our golden delicious tree in the front yard.

The first recipe Christy featured during Apple Week was Apple Dapple Cake. I remembered my mom baking it many years ago but I haven’t even thought of it in ages. I decided to bake one this morning to take to our church women’s fellowship this evening. You should have seen those ladies – they loved the cake! They were all telling each other “You have to have a slice of that cake!” or “This is the best cake I have ever eaten!” Fortunately they left enough for my husband and son to have a slice when I got home. The photo is of the very last lone slice that was left when they finished. I forgot to take a photo of the whole cake. I may just have to bake another one soon. You can find the recipe here.
