4 c. coarsely chopped apples
2 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. salt
2 c. sifted flour
1/2 c. vegetable oil
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. chopped walnuts

Combine apples and sugar; let stand. Beat eggs slightly, beat in oil and vanilla. Sift together flour, soda, cinnamon and salt. Stir in alternately with apple-sugar mixture. Stir in walnuts.

Pour into greased and floured 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes (until it tests done). Let stand in pan until quite cool; turn out on rack to continue cooling. We like it unfrosted or with Cool Whip. I have frosted it with lemon butter frosting or cream cheese frosting.
