Raw Apple Cake
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 3 cups finely chopped Granny Smith apples
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups white sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon milk, or more as needed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- 2.5 cups confectioners' sugar
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F(175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Whisk oil and eggs together in a bowl. Place apples in a separate bowl: pour oil mixture over top.
- Meanwhile, whisk flour, white sugar, baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a separate bowl; fold into apple mixture until batter is thick but well combined. Pour into the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool, about 30 minutes.
- Beat cream cheese, 1 tablespoon milk, vanilla extract, and 1 pinch salt in a bowl until well combined; gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until smooth. Beat in more milk, if needed, 1 tablespoon at a time, until reaches desired consistency.
- Spread cream cheese frosting over cooled cake.
