4 eggs
1/3 c. orange juice
3/4 c. vegetable shortening
3 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. plus 4 tsp. sugar
2 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
3 apples
1 tsp. cinnamon

Peel, core, and slice the apples thickly. Sprinkle with cinnamon and 4 teaspoon sugar; mix well and set aside.

Sift flour with powder. Mix eggs with juice, shortening, vanilla, and remaining sugar. Add flour and mix for 10 minutes at medium speed in an electric mixer. Grease and flour a bundt or tube pan.

Pour a third of the batter into the pan and sprinkle with half the apples. Add another layer of batter and the rest of the apples. Top with remaining batter and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Cover with foil and bake another 30 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
