applesauce!
ginny will love it.
or my mom's apple cake:
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 1/4 tsp vanilla
2 cup sifted flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
3 cup diced apples
1 cup chopped pecans
Beat together oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Sift together 2 cups flour, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Add dry ingredients to wet, beat to combine but don't overmix. stir in apples and nuts. Bake at 1 hour at 350. Let cool, spread with caramel topping
Caramel topping:
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup milk
combine ingredients, bring to a boil and let boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat; spread at once over top of cake.
Note I've not made the above recipe, I just transcribed it from my sisters family recipe book, as per usual with the book, it helpfully does not say what size pan the cake is for, probably a 9 inch round cake pan. or a 9x13, which I think is what my mom uses (suddenly recipe seems less helpful)
