INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt butter in 13x9x2" baking pan inoven while pre-heating; remove.
Combine 1 cup of sugar, chopped nuts and cinnamon in small bowl.
Sprinkle evenly oveer melted butter. Arrange apple slices,  overlapping
slightly. Sift flour, remaining sugar, baking powder and  salt into
large bowl. Add shortening, milk, eggs and vanilla. Beat at  low speed,
until combined, then at high speed for 2 minutes. Pour  evenly over
apples. Bake at 350 F (160 C) for 1 hour and 10 minutes,  or until top
springs back when lightly pressed with fingertip. Cool  in pan on wire
rack for 5 minutes. Loosen around edges with a knife.  Cover with a
large serving tray or cookie sheet. Turn. Lift off pan.  This came from
an issue of either Family Circle or Woman's Day over 20  years ago. It
has never failed and has never failed to please. The  original recipe
calls for the blanched almonds, but I prefer the  taste and texture of
walnuts or pecans. I also recommend using Granny  Smith apples, and
unsalted margarine can be used in place of  vegetable shortening.
