This recipe was first sent to me by my mother-in-law back in the 60's.
2 cups flour - sifted
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 cups sugar
1 cup walnuts - chopped
1/2 cup raisins - golden or dark as you prefer
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla extract
1 can Apple pie filling (cut apple into smaller pieces, if desired)
Mix all dry ingredients together. Then add eggs, oil, vanilla, and pie filling. Mix thoroughly with wooden spoon until well blended.
Pour into greased and floured 10" tube pan or bunt pan. Bake 1 hour at 350. Let cake cool in the pan on wire rack until completely cooled. Before removing cake from pan, run butter knife under hot water and ease around edges of cake.
