Fresh Apple Cake with Butter Rum Sauce

4 c fresh chopped apples

(or one pint of canned apple pie filling)

1 c canola oil
2 c sugar
2 c flour
1/2 tsp soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
2 tsp apple pie spice
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
4 oz Heaths toffee bits


preheat oven to 300 degrees


grease a 9x13 inch glass baking dish



Beat eggs, add sugar. Beat; add oil and beat. Sift dry ingredients into the mixture. It will be a very thick mixture after adding apples. I like to use gala or granny smith apples for this recipe. I also leave the skins on. you can add walnuts if you wish.

Bake in 300 degree oven for 1hour and 15 min or until toothpick comes out clean.


Hot Butter Rum Sauce

1 c. sugar
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. light cream or half and half
Rum flavoring to taste. a little goes a long way!


In saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and cream. Stir occasionally until hot. Stir in rum and serve over hot cake.
