4 cups diced fresh apples
2 cups sugar
1 cup oil
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups four-bean flour mix (Bette Hagmans's)
2 tsp. baking soda
1-1/2 tsp. xanthan gum
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 cup chopped walnuts
Mix together apples and sugar and let stand one hour stirring every now and then. The sugar will make a syrup mixture with the apples.
Mix dry ingredients together. Set aside.
Meanwhile, beat eggs, add oil and vanilla. Add apple-sugar mixture. Stir in dry ingredients. Add walnuts.
Grease and flour a tube pan. Bake in 350 degree oven for 1-1/4 hours or until done.
You can also make mini loaves. Bake about 25 minutes or until done. Freezes well.
