Same story here, still snowed in. Job was closed again today, that’s the fifth consecutive day that they’ve been closed! This is the worse storm I’ve seen in Maryland in my entire life, and I’ve lived in Maryland since birth! My husband and I will be shoveling snow today. The icicles outside our bedroom window have grown even larger, but, I was too lazy to take a picture today!

Here’s the Apple Coffeecake recipe that I promised you! It did turn out yummy and it goes great with a plate of eggs and pork sausage!

Apple Coffee Cake
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 cups white sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1/2 cup orange juice (I did not have any orange juice, so I substituted apple juice instead.)
4 apples – peeled, cored and sliced
5 tablespoons white sugar
5 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10 inch tube pan.
2. In a large bowl, stir together flour and baking powder. In a separate
bowl, beat together 2 cups sugar, vegetable oil, eggs. Stir egg mixture into
flour mixture, alternately with orange juice, until smooth. In a small bowl, combine 5 tablespoons white sugar, 5 tablespoons brown sugar and 2 teaspoons
cinnamon.
3. Pour 1/2 of batter into prepared pan. Add 1/2 of the apples then 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
4. Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean, about 50 to 70 minutes. Let cool for 15 to 20 minutes, invert on a plate and
serve.

Enjoy!
