6 apples, cored and sliced (may substitute peaches)
5 tbsp. plus 2 c. sugar
5 tsp. cinnamon
3 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 c. oil
4 eggs
1/4 c. orange juice
1 tbsp. vanilla

Combine apples, 5 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon. Sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a large bowl. Make a well in center and pour in oil, eggs, orange juice and vanilla. Beat until blended.

Drain apple mixture of excess moisture. Spoon 1/3 of batter into a greased 9 inch or 10 inch angel food pan. Make a rind of 1/2 apple mixture on top of batter, taking care not to have any apple touching the sides of the pan.

Spoon another third of the batter over, make another ring of remaining batter. Cover with aluminum foil if cake begins to over brown. Bake at 375 degrees for 1 1/4 hours.
