Rosh Hashanah celebrates the Jewish New Year and it’s a time for families to get together and celebrate the upcoming year.
It’s customary to eat sweet things, like apples and honey, on Rosh Hashanah to symbolize a sweet new year. Whether you’re hosting or attending a holiday feast, a classic apple cake is sure to be a hit amongst your family and friends!
Here is a simple recipe you can make to celebrate the New Year!

- 1 cup oil
- 4 eggs
- 6 peeled and thinly sliced apples
- 3 tbs. chopped walnuts

In a large bowl, mix eggs, oil, flour, baking powder (add to dry ingredient first), vanilla extract and 1 1/2 cups of sugar. In a separate bowl, mix sliced apples with the rest of the sugar, cinnamon and chopped walnuts.
